#legendloveschristmas with Nespresso
Dec 10, 2018
Nespresso is feeling extra festive this holiday season. Inspired by Parisian Gourmandise, Nespresso has teamed up with highly-acclaimed interior designer India Mahdavi to design playful and colourful capsules that house three new delicious limited edition Variations just in time for Christmas. The festive range features a Paris Black espresso – the first espresso to be included as part of its Variation range –made with a blend of Arabicas and Robusta, offering notes of cereal, nuts as well as spicy and woody tones. The other two flavours, Variations Macaron and Variations Praline, will remind you of your favourite quintessential Parisian pastries – the perfect excuse to indulge in one with your coffee (not that you needed one).
The limited edition Variations (HK$67 per sleeve) comes in sets of 10 capsules and are available from now until stock lasts. In need of some gift inspiration? Nespresso will be a sure-fire hit with any coffee lover and make a great long-term present. Luckily, Nespresso is offering 20% discount on selected coffee machines (such as the Pixie, Inissia and Lattissima One) from now until January 6 2019 as their special gift to you.
Giveaway
We have one Nespresso Creatista Plus machine for one of our lucky readers this season. This stunning Nespresso Coffee capsule machine to which the iconic Australian kitchen appliance brand (Breville) has added a pretty incredible milk frothing system.
Combining the unique automatic steam wand technology of Breville with Nespresso’s coffee expertise, the Creatista Plus has been designed especially for coffee aficionados to practice the art of making rich, velvety, micro-bubble milk foam that holds together for very detailed latte art. The Creatista Plus can create multiple milk foam textures that allows you to make everything from a classic creamy Cappuccino to a velvety smooth Flat White, or a meticulously-made Latte (plus art with milk foam) – all in the comfort of your own home.
After selecting your preferred coffee recipe, all you have to do is fill the provided milk jug and place it on the temperature sensor. The milk is then automatically heated to the ideal temperature, and the wand froths it to the perfect texture for your selected drink. The machine comes equipped with a menu of milk-based recipes with different foam textures, temperatures and quantities recommended by Nespresso experts, however users can personalise the settings at each stage.
Features of the Creatista Plus:
- Adjustable automatic milk texturing for Flat White, Cappuccino, Café Latte and Latte Macchiato. Also generates ‘micro-milk’ foam with optimal froth quality (8 textures levels), which is essential for latte art creation
- Adjustable milk temperature (11 settings)
- Fast self-cleaning
- Intuitive user interface offering step-by-step assistance for coffee personalisation and maintenance
- Fast heat-up
- Automatic power-off after 10 minutes of non-use
Featuring a polished stainless steel exterior, rounded edges and chrome details, Creatista Plus is the ideal addition to any kitchen and the ultimate machine for those of you who fancy yourself a budding barista at home.
