carrot cake latte

Those cozy spices, that creamy frosting… there’s nothing quite like a homemade slice of carrot cake. So, when we set out to create this blend, we knew we wanted it to taste just like the real thing. It took us over five years and 20 versions but, honestly? Worth it. This blend is giving lightly spiced flavour and sweet, creamy deliciousness that actually tastes like frosting. 

Obviously, the next step for a tea this indulgent is to turn it into the coziest & most delicious latte, so that’s just what we did. Inspired by the viral banana banana bread latte people can’t get enough of, this Carrot Cake Latte pumps up the fresh-from-the-oven feels with carrot cake syrup, allspice, cream cheese cold foam and—of course—our Carrot Cake tea. The perfect decadent afternoon treat for any carrot cake lover, or soon to be convert.
