This iced latte has all the rich, buttery flavors of cake with hints of vanilla and sugar. Top with whipped cream and sprinkles for the ultimate birthday vibes.

One thing I never grew out of is my love for birthday cake. Just the thought of yellow cake covered in white icing and colorful sprinkles is enough to give me a spike of dopamine!

With my birthday coming up, I wanted to make a coffee drink that could help me celebrate. A birthday cake latte was the obvious answer.

To create it, I make a flavored milk base that tastes like a cupcake. Next, I add espresso, then top the drink with whipped cream or a cold foam and add lots of sprinkles.

Voila! A festive coffee to help you celebrate another year on this planet. 🎉

Ingredients

A carton of whole milk, bottle of cupcake flavored syrup, Reddiwip canister, 2oz of espresso, and a handful of confetti sprinkles on a black background.
  • Espresso – Use your favorite coffee beans to brew 2oz of espresso, or substitute 1/4 cup strongly brewed coffee.
  • Flavored Syrup – I use Torani cupcake syrup in this latte.
  • Milk – Use any milk you prefer (whole, 2%, almond, oat, etc.)
  • Ice – I use my Opal nugget ice maker because I’m obsessed with pebble ice.
  • Toppings – Any whipped cream or cold foam and confetti sprinkles.

Tips

  1. You can easily adjust the amount of syrup up or down to achieve your preferred level of sweetness.
  2. Want to top it with a cold foam instead of whipped cream? Just add 1/4 cup milk and 2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream and some cupcake or vanilla syrup together, then combine with a double frother until thick.
  3. Make it even more fun by adding a drizzle of caramel or white chocolate syrup to your glass.
A pint glass is filled with a birthday cake latte that's topped with thick cold foam and colorful confetti sprinkles.
