These are super adorable and I loved them..... BUT!!! They absorb the heat so quickly that by the time you put the cup to your lips to sip the espresso, it's merely "very warm". It no longer has steam rising from the liquid. That's just from taking it straight from the machine and going to drink it. If we were to try and use these to serve customers with, the espresso would be cold. So we have to get something else.
Unfortunately, between the restocking fee and the return shipping fee, it wasn't worth it to return it. So we just had to eat the 50 dollars in lost merchandise.
But the little cup and saucer sets are really cute! I just wish they didn't absorb heat so quickly.
Thank you for the review, Virginia! Please note, pre-heating the mug by filling it with hot water prior to use will help retain the temperature of the drink For an espresso cup that may better suit your needs, we suggest trying this cup instead.
