Pumpkin Cold Foam Starbucks Style

Category: Sweet Endings

Create Starbucks-style pumpkin cold foam in just 5 minutes with a handful of simple ingredients. Blend heavy cream, pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla, pumpkin spice, and a touch of salt until thick yet pourable. This luscious foam transforms iced coffee or cold brew into a fall-inspired treat with cozy spices and a creamy texture. Adjust sweetness to your taste, and store extra foam in the fridge for easy, flavorful drinks all week. Be careful not to overmix, as that can turn the mixture into whipped cream—aim for a silky, pourable finish every time.

Recipe FAQs

→ What type of cream is best for cold foam?

Heavy whipping cream gives the richest, smoothest texture for cold foam, staying airy and pourable when whipped lightly.

→ Can I use fresh pumpkin instead of puree?

Using canned pumpkin puree ensures a smooth consistency, but well-blended cooked fresh pumpkin can work with similar results.

→ What drinks pair well with pumpkin cold foam?

It is excellent over cold brew, iced coffee, chai lattes, or even hot coffee for a seasonal treat.

→ How long does leftover cold foam keep?

You can store extra cold foam in a sealed container in the fridge for up to one week. Stir gently before using again.

→ Why does overmixing change the foam's texture?

Overwhipping heavy cream introduces too much air and can turn it into whipped cream or even butter, losing the pourable quality desired for cold foam.

Ingredients

→ Cold Foam Base

01 240 ml heavy whipping cream
02 150 ml sweetened condensed milk
03 15 ml vanilla extract
04 61 g pumpkin puree
05 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
06 0.25 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps

Step 01

In a mixing bowl, add pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, kosher salt, and heavy whipping cream.

Step 02

Using a hand mixer, blend on medium-low speed until the mixture begins to thicken. Increase to medium speed and continue mixing until cold foam is thick but remains pourable.

Step 03

Pour cold brew or iced coffee over ice, then top with pumpkin cold foam. Optionally, sprinkle pumpkin pie spice on top before serving.

Step 04

Store any leftover cold foam in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Stir gently before each use.

Notes

  1. Avoid over mixing to prevent turning the foam into whipped cream or butter; mix just until thickened and pourable.
  2. Adjust sweetness by increasing or decreasing the amount of sweetened condensed milk to suit personal preference.
