De’Longhi, the #1 global espresso brand, has launched yet another stylish and functional innovation: the Dedica Duo. Launched yesterday, the Dedica Duo boasts an ultra-slim design, packed with features that make brewing your morning coffee enjoyable. Delivering both espresso brewing and making cold brew in one unit, this tiny yet mighty espresso machine is perfect for the smallest spaces (think apartments, small kitchens, and more). Although it’s no surprise that this launch comes from the renowned De’Longhi, the new gelato-inspired shades are the standout feature of this launch.

The 5.9″ wide De’Longhi Dedica Duo is designed to match any kitchen aesthetic. Priced at $299.95 (USD), you can now get your hands on one in any of the four gelato-inspired shades. Whether you’re looking for a bold pop of kitchen-counter color or choose to stick with the timeless Stainless Steel, you know this De’Longhi machine will be the most beautiful piece atop your kitchen counter. The four shades available now include:
  • Rose: A soft, playful pink for a touch of whimsy in your kitchen.
  • Pistachio: A fresh, modern green that brings understated elegance to your countertop.
  • Vanilla: A warm, neutral hue that complements any style with a classic, clean look.
  • Stainless Steel: Sleek and timeless, offering that professional, coffeehouse vibe.

While its beauty will take you by surprise, the De’Longhi Dedica Duo offers so much more than a pleasing aesthetic. This new launch enables coffee drinkers to brew hot espresso in just seconds or enjoy smooth, cold brew coffee in under 5 minutes, without the steeping required for traditional cold brewing. The built-in barista tools, such as the My LatteArt steam wand, make it easy to create microfoam for fun, cafe-style drinks.

Avoid the additives found in many coffee creamers
Coffee with cream

When I first heard of a "homemade coffee creamer recipe," I immediately pictured a multi-step process requiring dozens of ingredients. As much as I love cooking, my hectic everyday work week doesn't allow me time to experiment with complicated recipes.

Yet, I know that many store-bought creamers today contain many additives, such as lots of sugar or high fructose corn syrup, maltodextrin, and emulsifiers. Therefore, it's easy to see the appeal of trying a homemade coffee creamer. To my surprise, making coffee creamer at home is uncomplicated. It's way easier than it sounds. Many recipes, such as this homemade coffee creamer, require only four natural ingredients.

Wandering Bear Banana Bread Cold Brew

I first saw this announcement on an Instagram Ad (yes, the algorithm seems to have effectively targeted the right audience) by Wandering Bear Coffee. If you had asked me to think of 15 different flavor pairings that would work well with cold brew coffee, there's a 100% chance Banana would not have made the list. Yet, the more I thought about it, the banana bread cold brew flavor pairing didn't seem so far-fetched. After all, the concept of dessert for breakfast is already widely accepted.
