Why the Viral Italian Coffee Cream Works | Food Science Explained ☕️🧪
If you’ve seen the viral Italian coffee cream drink taking over the internet, you’re probably curious about how it works. And if you haven’t, well, it's time to crawl out from under that rock! 🪨
In this video, I dive into the fascinating science 🧬 behind this three-ingredient wonder.
From the food microstructure that makes it possible, to why using cold coffee is essential, each step in the process has a specific role in creating that fluffy, creamy texture we all love.
I'll break down how powdered sugar and cream interact, and why the temperature of your coffee ☕️ is the key to success.
Join me as I shake things up-literally-and reveal the science that turns simple ingredients into a light, airy drink. 🌬️ Plus, I’ll share some insights from my own PhD research on food structure, and even take you back to one of my first TH-cam experiments. 🎓
Subscribe for more food science insights and delicious experiments! 🔬👨‍🍳

✅ What ingredients are in Italian Coffee Cream? It's only three ingredients-- cold espresso, powdered sugar and cream.
❌ Is this a food hack? No, this is food science!
✅ Why is the drink a foam? By shaking the drink in a half empty water bottle, you're incorporating tiny air bubbles. This is why the volume of the drink increases.
✅ Why is the drink an emulsion? You start with cream which is an emulsion itself. The fat globules are dispersed in a water phase. This emulsion later incorporates the air bubbles and coffee liquid.

    Warning! I never heard anything about bioengineered food additives. I've always eaten white corn tortilla chips. One day I bought the Walmart brand and ended up with a strong adverse reaction to the chips. I never experienced that before. The organic ones that I've always eaten never gave me any problems. No matter what they say, let this be a strong warning that there are those of us out here that will have a strong reaction to bioengineered food additives.

If the college I'm trying to has no food science major (undergraduate). Which one will be the best alternative major for graduate school? Will majors like chemistry or biochemistry be better than Nutritional Science?

    • @AbbeytheFoodScientist
      @AbbeytheFoodScientist 16 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I would say chemistry and biochemistry are very good choices because you will take all the necessary science classes to get into grad school. Nutritional sciences actually doesn't have that much overlap. I would recommend any major where you cover all basic sciences.

    Hi Abbey, Was looking to see if you had a video on stearic acid based products that make hot used cooking oil into a gel. I'm trying to figure out how that happens, and what exactly is in these products. Would be amazing to get your views/thoughts/maybe a video? Thanks in advance!

    • @AbbeytheFoodScientist
      @AbbeytheFoodScientist 16 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Just looked it up and was confused because I don't think it's a gel. What's happening is the stearic acid crystals act as "seeds" or seed the fat mixture. Basically, they serve as a template for the other oil molecules to crystallisation onto. It helps turn all that liquid fat into solid fat crystals, which is easier to dispose of. Seeding is also done in chocolate making, funny enough!

    I'd just like to think that we don't drop food that often to begin with, and that the pathogens we may consume after picking up the food are probably still in such a small amount that normally we wouldn't get sick from it; if it does anything to our body at all, it's only strengthening our immune system. I am aware that it doesn't apply to more serious diseases, but our immune system is stronger than what the majority of bacteria and viruses could do, and most pathogens are probably also killed off by our saliva alone. Maybe the 5 second rule just discourages people from eating food they didn't see being dropped?
