Cinnamon Latte Frit Blend, 2 oz, 96 COE

Capture the warmth of your favorite neighborhood coffee shop with Cinnamon Latte Frit Blend, a handcrafted 96 COE artisan glass frit inspired by creamy lattes, cinnamon spice, toasted caramel, warm pastries, and the comforting colors of autumn afternoons.

Warm ivory, creamy almond, champagne, caramel, tobacco brown, soft cinnamon, and subtle apricot create a balanced palette filled with natural movement. Carefully placed reactive Multicolor Dark introduces tiny flecks and ribbons that may develop into rich mocha, burgundy, chocolate, olive, gray-blue, or deep espresso tones as the glass melts and anneals. Every firing reveals its own personality, making no two beads exactly alike.

Designed for 96 COE glass systems, Cinnamon Latte performs beautifully in lampworking, glass fusing, glass blowing, and surface decoration. Its carefully balanced composition produces distinctly different effects depending on how the frit is applied. Mosaic techniques preserve individual fragments of cream, caramel, cinnamon, and mocha, creating beads that resemble vanilla bean, cinnamon sprinkles, and toasted spices. Swirl techniques encourage flowing ribbons of café-au-lait, caramel, espresso, and warm cinnamon beneath clear glass, while encasing enhances depth, transparency, and painterly movement. Gold aventurine may be added separately to create a subtle golden shimmer reminiscent of afternoon sunlight.

Cinnamon Latte responds beautifully to a variety of base colors. White, ivory, cream, champagne, pale pink, warm beige, and clear glass each reveal a different interpretation of the blend. Light opaque bases produce soft, creamy mosaics, while transparent bases create layered ribbons with remarkable depth and movement. Small adjustments in frit placement can dramatically influence the finished appearance, producing anything from delicate café-au-lait tones to richer caramel and mocha palettes.

Compatible with 104 COE glass when used sparingly, generally around 5–10% of the total design. Testing on a small project is always recommended before committing to a larger piece.

Inspiration beads are shown for demonstration only and are not included.

Inspired By

Cinnamon Latte was inspired by the comforting ritual of slowing down with a warm cup of coffee on a crisp autumn afternoon. Cream swirls into espresso, cinnamon drifts across the foam, caramel catches the afternoon light, and every sip feels slightly different from the last.

Rather than focusing on bold seasonal colors, this blend celebrates subtle warmth through creamy neutrals, toasted caramel, soft cinnamon, rich mocha, and unexpected hints of burgundy and cool shadow. Like a handcrafted latte, every bead begins with the same ingredients, yet each one develops its own unique character through heat, movement, and the natural beauty of molten glass.

Handcrafted in small batches in the USA by glass artist Stephanie A. White, each jar is carefully blended for consistency while preserving the organic variation expected from artisan glass materials. Colors may vary slightly due to lighting, monitor settings, application technique, base glass, flame chemistry, kiln schedule, and individual working conditions.
