Put Your Face On It

Don't care to learn the finer points of steaming milk with microfoam or pouring the latte art favorites of hearts and leaves? Now you don't have to! Just hack together an 80's era Kodak inkjet printer and a flatbed scanner, load it up with caramelized sugar and you're in! At least, that's what these guys think -- hope, actually -- and they've built a prototype to sell to your neighborhood Sbux. Just think of all the fun variations you could have with this. Sure, you don't need a logo on your latte, but if you're feeling a little bit vain, how about a cameo-style portrait of yourself? Get hardcore with your inner crazy cat lover by imprinting your feline companion's visage on your latte. Or, if you're hoping to smooth out some family ties, put your mother-in-law's smiling face on there as a 'tribute'. Really, the options just might be endless.
