If you’re someone who loves discovering new food and drink trends, there’s a bold new flavour that’s just arrived in Malaysia and deserves a place on your must-try list. The popular Korean dalgona coffee that once took the world by storm on social media has now found a new form – and a new home – at CU Malaysia. Say hello to the CU Dalgona Cappuccino, the latest beverage sensation that’s already making waves among coffee lovers across the country.
Available for a limited time at CU convenience stores nationwide, this indulgent drink is more than just another menu addition – it’s a premium coffee experience at an affordable price. Whether you’re seeking a refreshing cold drink on a sunny day or a warm pick-me-up during your afternoon slump, CU’s Dalgona Cappuccino brings you the perfect combination of richness, sweetness, and creaminess in every sip.
But what exactly is this new coffee trend all about, and why should one rush to the nearest CU store to try it out? Let’s break it down.
What is CU Dalgona Cappuccino?
The CU Dalgona Cappuccino is inspired by the original Korean dalgona coffee trend that exploded across the internet during the global lockdown period. At its core, this drink celebrates the artistry of hand-whipped coffee, but CU Malaysia has taken it to the next level. Their version blends a robust espresso base with a light, frothy topping and finishes it off with a crunchy sprinkle of caramelised dalgona honeycomb.
You’ll get a drink that hits all the right notes – strong, creamy, and sweet – with a texture that feels indulgent yet balanced. It’s available in two variants to suit your personal preference:
-
Cold (20oz) – RM10.99
-
Hot (10oz) – RM8.99
Both versions come with the signature dalgona topping, delivering a delightful crunch and a burst of caramel flavour.
Why Should Malaysians Try This?
There are plenty of reasons why this new offering deserves attention, especially for those who are always on the hunt for something different. Here’s why the CU Dalgona Cappuccino stands out:
-
