Abstract

An instant particulate dry mix composition produces a cappuccino beverage having surface foam with a marbled appearance upon reconstitution in water. The dry mix composition is made by freeze drying the coffee extract to produce granules having an outer surface layer which is rapidly soluble and a larger inner core layer which is slowly soluble.
