🌟 Why You'll Love This Recipe

It couldn't be easier to make. Trust me, you got this one.
Your furry friend will be thrilled. Your pup will LOVE being able to enjoy a little treat.
You only need one ingredient. One. That's it.

💭 What is a Puppuccino?

A puppuccino (sometimes also called a "pup cup") is an espresso-sized cup of whipped cream. It's designed for dogs, as the name "pup cup" would suggest. The name is a cute play on the "cappuccino" beverage. But instead of being made with espresso, the puppuccino is made out of whipped cream!

When you're hitting up the drive thru with your pooch in tow, you don't want them to feel left out. Grab yourself an Iced PSL and a pup cup for your best friend. They'll love it and you'll love watching them enjoy it.

📝 What is in a Pup Cup?

If you're looking for a super easy treat for your pup, look no further. This recipe (it feels silly to even call it that, tbh) only requires ONE ingredient. See the recipe card for full information on ingredients and quantities.

  • Whipped cream: Canned whipped cream will do the trick. You can also use homemade whipped cream, if you prefer.

👩🏻‍🍳 How to make a Puppuccino at home

There's only one step to this "recipe": Just squirt some whipped cream into a small cup! I reused an espresso cup from Starbucks from when I last picked up a puppuccino for my dog.
