Printed Foam Bubble Teas

Answer Tea is Revolutionizing the Beverage Customization Process

— June 13, 2019 — Lifestyle
Answer Tea amplifies the pleasure of the bubble tea experience with customizable printed foam. A first of its kind in Toronto, the company recognizes the demand for personalized products and social media-friendly decor. While its beverage offerings are sure to stun consumers, the shop's interior is carefully curated to appeal to Instagram users.

Guests can choose between two types of customization for their printed foam bubble tea. The first option prompts you to write down a question on the cup before the drink is prepared. When receiving the product, an answer will be printed atop. The second personalization opportunity is far more intricate. Customers can select any picture from their phone — from personal photos to quirky Internet images, and get it reflected in the printed foam of their bubble tea.
Trend Themes
1. Customizable Printed Foam - The trend of customizable printed foam in bubble teas provides a unique and personalized beverage experience, appealing to consumers who want to express their individuality.
2. Social Media-friendly Decor - The trend of incorporating social media-friendly decor in beverage shops capitalizes on the desire of Instagram users to capture and share visually appealing content, attracting a larger customer base.
3. Personalized Product Demand - The trend of recognizing and catering to the demand for personalized products taps into consumers' desire for customized experiences and cultivates brand loyalty.
Industry Implications
1. Beverage Industry - The beverage industry can take advantage of customizable printed foam to create innovative and customizable drink options, attracting a wider range of customers and boosting sales.
2. Food and Beverage Retail - Food and beverage retail establishments can benefit from incorporating social media-friendly decor to create Instagrammable spaces, increasing customer engagement and attracting new patrons.
3. Marketing and Branding - The marketing and branding industry has an opportunity to leverage the trend of personalized product demand to develop targeted campaigns and strategies that resonate with consumers seeking unique and customizable experiences.
