As I’ve been blogging about lately ”since it’s awesome and groundbreaking and important and cool ”the U.S. Latte Art Exhibition is the first step toward the U.S. having a seat at the World Latte Art Championship table. This competition gets more and more esteemed all the time, and it’s high time the United States had an entry on the international stage! From April 11 to 13 in Boston at the SCAA Conference. the U.S. Latte Art Exhibition will pull out all the stops in getting this competition format down. The hope is that, after successfully pulling this Exhibition off in Boston, the United States will have an official U.S. Latte Art Championship in 2014, from which we’ll send the champion to compete on behalf of the country at the World Latte Art Championship taking place in Gothenburg, Sweden.
