Answer Tea amplifies the pleasure of the [bubble tea experience](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boba-you-x-me) 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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mini-pearl-adventures) users.

Guests can choose between two types of customization for their [printed foam bubble tea](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fruit-foam). 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.
