Product Information

Once done, pour over your drink mix and add a fabulous final flourish using the stencils and powder. Her machine is set up in the kitchen next time mine, and when it’s “coffee-time” she dips into the kitchen and makes her favourite strawberry with chocolate sprinkles Frappuccino all on her own. You can even use a variety of different milks to make your drinks including regular, low fat, cold lactose free, almond and soy milk. They will love the ability to make drinks that look like real cafe style beverages, and then decorating them for a professional finish! This rather fabulous Creative Cafe Barista Bar mimics the look of a real café style machine, bringing real world play to life for little hands.

This was so easy to use and with recipe cards to follow, I am now not involved in this process at all. I love that the concept is so simple and easy to apply to any kind of milk you keep in your fridge and any kind of flavours you can find in your cupboards.The set contains recipe/instruction cards for the children to follow so they can make different flavoured drinks. You just need to insert the batteries and connect the handle, that’s it, job done, and ready to use in under two minutes.

It is a far cry from when she was a baby and my coffee would inevitably get cold – one of the joys of our children getting older. It is also important to note that these drinks are cold, so although they look like coffees your child will not burn themselves at all as nothing is heated. Excitement levels rocketed when they realised that the battery-powered whisk is actually able to froth real milk, allowing them to feel like the real thing. With Creative Café Barista Bar, kids can become a barista at home and create their own kid-friendly “lattes” made with frothed milk. Inspired by the current coffee culture, the Creative Café Barista Bar is kid safe and even works without heat.SIMPLE INGREDIENTS - Use the flavoured powders that come with the Barista Bar or get creative and explore with ingredients you have at home to make something new! My kids played cafes together for ages and wanted to make everyone drinks and practice their latte art skills using the stencils and then going freehand and getting creative too. The super stylish Barista Bar emulates the look of a real cafe style machine and includes a battery-powered whisk that froths real milk to create fantastic cafe creations - no heat required! The Creative Cafe Barista Bar lets kids hone their early barista skills, pretend playing at creating impressive latte art!

Here you will find lots of reviews for days out, products, and holidays as well as some parenting advice and opinion pieces. When you run out of the chocolate and strawberry powders, don’t worry as the Creative Café Barista Bar refills can easily be replenished by what’s in your kitchen. As the jug is clear the kids are able to see the whisk at work and on the first drink they can watch it turn from white to pink or brown and on the second they can see it getting frothier and bigger, which mine enjoyed. You can use any flavoured powder for your base mix as well as for the topping for your finished creation. PERFECT PRESENT - The Creative Cafe Barista Bar is the ideal present for Children aged 6 years and over who love delicious frothy drinks.We had to attach the crank handle which was super easy and you need a screwdriver (small cross-head) to pop in 3 AA batteries which are not included. The Creative Cafe Barista Bar is aimed at those over 6 but both my 10-year-old son and 2-year-old daughter loved it and I think if you want them to use it on their own then stick to 6 but if you plan on using it with them then younger children will really love the imaginative play side of it too.

There is a clear set of visual instructions for you or your child to follow, which I went through with Alyssa – she thought it looked so easy that she wanted to make a “How to Use” Video which you can see now on our Instagram. Kids can even get creative and invent their own “latte” flavors with ingredients from their kitchen! Create chocolate and strawberry drinks with frothy foam, and top off with stenciled designs to make latte art like a barista.So, when we were asked to review the new at home Creative Cafe Barista Bar, I knew Alyssa would be excited… I just didn’t realise HOW excited! Both my children have always loved their play kitchen and have spent years making me cups of tea and coffee.
