The Almond Breeze Latte Art Video Latte Art Challenge (LAVC) is now open for entries in Australia. This is the first time Almond Breeze has attempted to recreate the success of its Breezey Masters events in the online world.

The LAVC will allow Australian baristas to go head to head with the best in the business from Japan, South Africa and the UK for the chance to be included in the final of Breezey Masters, held this year in Melbourne.

Baristas need to submit their best latte art videos to the Almond Breeze Latte Art Video Challenge website. Each week, two video entries from each of the participating territories—Australia, Japan, the United Kingdom and South Africa—will be selected and videos will be pitted against each other, vying for votes to win the weekly cash prize of $500!

Votes will be gathered from Instagram, Youtube, Twitter and Facebook. The six baristas who receive the most votes go through to the finals (with prizes of $1000, $750 and $500 up for grabs) and the opportunity to win a place in the Breezey Masters 2018 final.

The Latte Art Video Challenge, which began in South Africa in 2017, will run alongside Almond Breeze’s Breezey Masters events that are currently happening throughout May, June, July, August and September in Australia. The new online element of the Breezey Masters program gives more baristas the chance to participate in Breezey Masters 2018, and win!
