What Is Pumpkin Cold Foam & Why Keto Fans Love It
Pumpkin cold foam (or autumn pumpkin cream topping) is basically a fluffy, whipped pumpkin-infused cream that sits on top of cold brew or iced coffee. The mainstream versions are full of added sugars and high-carb syrups, but keto versions replace those with sugar-free sweeteners (like Truvia liquid sweetener, monk fruit, or allulose) and use heavy cream for richness. You still get that pumpkin pie spiced vanilla flavor without the carb load. Searches for keto pumpkin cream cold brew and Starbucks copycat pumpkin cold foam show there’s big demand for this kind of recipe.
Keto Pumpkin Cold Foam Ingredients
- ¼ cup heavy cream (whipping cream)
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
- ½ teaspoon pumpkin spice (or pumpkin pie spice mix)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Truvia liquid sweetener (or your preferred keto/sugar-free liquid sweetener)
Optional: pinch of salt to enhance flavor; sprinkle extra pumpkin spice on top.
Step-by-Step Recipe: How to Make Keto Pumpkin Cold Foam
- In a small bowl, combine heavy cream, pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, pumpkin spice, and Truvia liquid sweetener.
- Whisk briskly until mixture becomes fluffy and holds soft peaks, this creates your pumpkin cream cold foam.
- Fill a glass ¾ full with ice, pour in your cold brew or iced coffee. (Optional: sweeten the coffee itself if desired, but keep in mind your foam already adds sweetness.)
- Spoon the pumpkin cream cold foam gently on top of the cold coffee.
- Garnish with a light dusting of pumpkin spice for aroma & aesthetic. Serve immediately.
Tips & Variations
- Sweetener swap: If you dislike the flavor of Truvia or want alternatives, try liquid monk fruit, allulose, or sugar-free vanilla syrup. Liquid sweeteners dissolve more cleanly in foam.
- Dairy or non-dairy option: Use coconut cream or full-fat coconut milk whipped (note: consistency/flavor will change).
- Pumpkin spice strength: Adjust pumpkin spice / pie spice up or down. If you only have individual spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves), you can mix your own.
- Make ahead: The foam is best fresh, but you can whip it lightly and store it covered in the fridge for a few hours; re-whisk before serving.
- Adjust thickness: For a thinner foam, reduce heavy cream or use a milk frother or immersion blender to aerate lightly.
