Dalgona Coffee with Pineapple Cream & Chipotle Olive Oil

Dalgona Coffee with Pineapple Cream & Chipotle Olive Oil Recipe at The Little Shop of Olive Oils

Dalgona with a Twist: Pineapple Cream + Chipotle Olive Oil

We’re always experimenting in the kitchen at The Little Shop, but every once in a while, a recipe stops us in our tracks. This is one of those moments.

You’ve probably seen the fluffy whipped Dalgona coffee trend—you know, the one that went viral for being equal parts fun and frothy. Well, we decided to take that idea and give it a Little Shop twist. And let’s just say... this version is not your average whipped coffee.

Picture this: a creamy, cool base made with whole milk and heavy cream, gently warmed and infused with our Pineapple White Balsamic and a touch of Chipotle Infused Olive Oil. Yes, you read that right—pineapple and chipotle. It’s sweet, smoky, and totally unexpected in the best way. Topped with a cloud of whipped Dalgona coffee and dusted with espresso or cocoa powder, this little dessert checks every box. Rich, smooth, tropical, and just the right amount of bold.

We love serving it in clear glasses so you can see the layers. It’s simple but elegant—and when you take that first spoonful, the flavors unfold one after another. Bright pineapple. Creamy vanilla. A whisper of smoke. A hit of coffee.

It’s different, but it works. And that’s kind of what we’re all about here—playing with flavor, surprising your taste buds, and giving everyday ingredients a little gourmet edge.

If you’re looking for something unique to impress guests—or just want a new way to treat yourself—this one’s worth making.

Let us know if you try it. We’re dying to hear what you think!
