Hello! I was wondering if any of you had any tips for my problem that I cannot seem to solve..

I have been doing latte art since 2019 and in the beginning of 2025 i’ve been trying to more complex designs like unicorns,seahorses,etc..

I seem to do a good job with it as long as I pour it in drinks that have cinnamon or cacao on top. As soon as I try this on just espresso it doesn’t work. When I start to draw on the top the milk starts te act like water paint that starts to bleed out. First pictures are finished designs with cacao or cinnamon. Last pictures to show what the problem is..

Many many many thanks!

Best wishes from a barista that’s struggling 😅
