Every morning people are usually looking for the aroma of coffee. Coffee has been part of most people's morning rituals at the breakfast table. Even on their free time outside their home, they usually look for a coffee shop and enjoy a specially made hot or cold coffee. To make the coffee time more fun, cups - whether disposable or not are creatively designed.

Espresso got its name from the process that the coffee beans have to undergo. These dark coffee beans are being placed in a special machine where they will be pressed out. In Italian, espresso means "pressed out". If the process is successfully done, a rich dark coffee with froth on top is what will be served to you using espresso cups.

The usual size of an espresso cup is 2-3 ounce. Originally made from porcelain and never goes without a saucer, an espresso cup is presented in a plain white color. For a change, it also becomes digitally printed. The traditional and true espresso cup called demitasse has a hand-painted design.

Since espresso cups have various designs, you can choose your very own cup that will go with who you are. Whether you are a simple one, the plain white is going to be perfect for you. If you want to add some twist to your cup, you may choose the glossy colored ones. For a more exciting cup design that matches your enthusiastic behavior, those printed ones are right for you and enjoy your next espresso time.

The handle of the espresso cups are the usual part of the cup that is commonly being styled. Not all cups are rounded; some of them have square handle and others have curved handle. The rim of the cup also varies. You can enjoy sipping the coffee in a rounded or square-shaped rim.

Whether you are drinking your espresso at home, in a restaurant, or in a caf, part of the coffee serving is its presentation. Aside from the optional toppings that you want to add in your coffee, the design of the cup also counts. Digital-painted, traditional hand-painted, plain, or colored - this factor adds an impact the cup.

Beautiful scenery for instance is among the designs being used to make the cup more enjoyable to use. You may find some espresso cups having a white background and the word "espresso" in black letters is written around it. It can also be the other way round. You may also have the other glossy plain colored cup or own a cup in its traditional mocha color.

If you do not fancy having a porcelain espresso cup, you may want to try the glass one such as the Assam double wall espresso cups or a stainless steel espresso cup. Whatever your choice may be, most of them have the same function and that is to keep your coffee hot while you enjoy it. - 24553
