Cappuccinos are an unsweetened drink. Cappuccinos often taste sweet because of some sweetness from the naturally occurring lactose sugar in milk. It may also be flavored with sugar, with flavored simple syrups, and other additives.

Cappuccinos are generally stronger and have a fuller flavor and texture than both the mocha and the latte. Because it contains less steamed milk, it can be expected a stronger espresso taste coming through from the espresso shot.

Cappuccinos can also be made more ‘dry’ by stretching the milk further to give it a lighter, fluffier texture with even more foam.
