The Tea Terrace, based in House of Fraser’s Oxford Street branch, has become Europe’s first location to deliver the  “Selfieccino,” which features an image of customers’ faces on the frothy topping of their drinks.

Patrons send their headshots via an online messaging app to the barista and are given the choice of either a cappuccino or  hot chocolate as their canvas.

The image is uploaded to the “Cino” machine while the drink is placed in position. The picture is then scanned and
reproduced onto the froth using a flavourless food colouring.

The process takes around four minutes before an image is presented on the froth, ready to be photographed and sent to  all points via social media before drinking, and costs around 5.75 pounds. ($7.5)
