Although the focus is of course on enjoyment, the number of calories is not entirely uninteresting for many coffee lovers. After all, they want to know how many cappuccinos a day they can safely enjoy. The number of calories in a cappuccino depends mainly on the milk used, as black coffee and espresso are very low in calories at just 3 kilocalories (kcal). On average, a cup of cappuccino contains around 50 kcal. However, the actual number of calories can also be higher, as the higher the fat content of the milk, the higher the calorie content.

Whether early in the morning or during a lunch break, a cappuccino perks us up and keeps us awake. Caffeine, and therefore the choice of coffee beans, plays a decisive role in this. Robusta beans, for example, contain considerably more caffeine than Arabica beans. On average, a classic espresso contains around 35 mg of caffeine.
