New Mocha con Choco from Caffe Latte

Thursday, September 3rd, 2009

Actually, it’s just the color of the cup has changed. It used to be green; now it’s brown! Only I with my unique expertise in Caffe Latte packaging would notice. ;)

New Mocha con Choco cup from Caffe Latte

매일 카페라떼모카 콘 초코 = Maeil Caffé Latte Mocha con Choco

Comes with a brown-tinted translucent plastic cover and brown green straw in transparent plastic sleeve that was glued to cup with golden foil lid.

Aside from the color, the Italian-themed cartoon people on the bottom half of the cup have been replaced with live, ethnically ambiguous models. Yeah, I guess this is a design improvement.

Yet the misspellings remain! Recommand [sic] used [sic] by date lid.

Same instructions: Do not use in microwave. Keep refrigerated. Though cups are being sold at room temperature… Maybe they mean refrigerate after opening.

The taste, I must admit, is still unremarkable. I can’t even tell the different variants of Caffe Latte apart. Ingredients the same:

Water, espresso coffee extract, whole milk powder, granulated sugar, Colombia coffee extract, cocoa powder, sodium bicarbonate, sucrose esters of fatty acids, cocoa mass, flavor, carrageenan
