Caffe Barista is a concentrated cappuccino flavoring paste from PreGel of Italy, built to deliver the milky, lightly roasted character of an Italian cappuccino or latte macchiato in finished gelato and pastry.

The paste pours thick and smooth, with a cappuccino-tone color and a typical coffee-with-milk aroma rounded out by a touch of burnt sugar for depth. Use it as the primary flavor in a cappuccino gelato, layer it into tiramisu-style Bavarian creams, or fold it into a vanilla base for a more mellow coffee read than a straight espresso paste. Gluten free.

For a straight Italian espresso profile rather than cappuccino, see Caffe Costa d'Oro Espresso Gelato Flavoring Paste, built on 20% coffee paste for a sharper, more roasted espresso character.
