Seoul's 'Takeout Drawing Room' has created a new drink, called '[Paul's Meringue Factory](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/therapeutic-pet-diet),' that brings a new level of sweetness to coffee. The caffeinated beverage is topped with a sculptural explosion of meringue, making it delicious, decadent, and social media-worthy.

With drinks like the pumpkin spice latte popularizing the idea of sweetness in coffee, Paul's Meringue Factory is hardly a surprising idea. However, the drink beats others in terms of its appearance. Topped with [spiky dollops of meringue](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baileys-meringues), the aesthetics of the drink are essential, especially considering that Takeout Drawing Room doubles as a small art gallery.

The coffee in Paul's Meringue Factory is a simple blend of [espresso and milk](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chocolate-mousse-latte). Because of the composition of meringue, it won't melt into the liquid, so consumers can take it out and eat it right away or save it until the end.
