A compact porcelain latte bowl designed for clean milk flow, stable heat, and delicate latte art.
Small in size, precise in form — the 3oz Latte Bowl is shaped to let espresso and milk meet beautifully in the cup. Also perfect for tasting portions, exhibitions, and brew bar service.
Designed for Small Milk Drinks
The ORIGAMI 3oz Latte Bowl is designed for small espresso-based drinks, such as espresso macchiato and other short milk beverages.
With a full capacity of approximately 90 ml, it offers just enough space for espresso and a small amount of milk to blend cleanly, while still allowing the barista to create detailed latte art.
A Smooth Inner Curve for Better Flow
Inside the bowl, the base and wall are shaped with a smooth continuous curve. This creates a natural convection structure, helping espresso and milk mix evenly as the milk is poured.
Rather than meeting a sharp corner at the bottom, the milk flows along the rounded interior, supporting clearer contrast and more controlled latte art, even in a small volume.
Balanced Thickness for Strength and Mouthfeel
ORIGAMI pays close attention not only to the outer form, but also to the thickness of the porcelain.
The rim is made to feel comfortable on the lips while maintaining strength, while the base is slightly thicker to support durability and heat retention. This balance helps the cup feel refined in use while remaining practical for daily café service.
Compact, Stable, and Easy to Handle
The 3oz Latte Bowl is compact, but designed with stability in mind. Its form feels balanced in the hand, and the handle is shaped to be easy to hold without making the cup feel heavy or oversized.
The renewed design follows the body language of ORIGAMI’s latte bowl collection, creating a more unified look across the 3oz, 6oz, 8oz, and 10oz sizes.
For Café Service and Home Rituals
Whether used in a busy café or at home, the 3oz Latte Bowl brings a precise and considered form to small milk drinks.
Its size, curve, and porcelain body work together to support both technical preparation and the quiet pleasure of serving a well-made cup.
Please note: the 3oz Saucer is sold separately.
A Reusable Cup for Events and Tastings
Beyond café service, the 3oz Latte Bowl is also well suited for exhibitions, brew bars, and tasting events.
Its compact 90 ml size makes it ideal for serving small drinks, espresso-based samples, or tasting portions. Used as a reusable carry cup during events, it offers a more thoughtful alternative to disposable paper cups, helping reduce waste while creating a more refined drinking experience.
For brands, roasters, and event organisers, it also brings a more considered presentation to every served cup — practical, durable, and aligned with a slower, more sustainable coffee culture.
