Cocoa Shakers

Paderno Cocoa Shakers for Baristas: Latte Art Stencils and Barista Tools

Paderno cocoa shakers, also called chocolate shakers or cocoa dusters, are barista tools for dusting cocoa, cinnamon, nutmeg and icing sugar on drinks and cakes. This category has two models: a simple 160 ml shaker and a shaker with 7 stencils for drawing designs on cappuccino and coffee foam.

Design and finish, for the counter and for home

The shaker with 7 stencils has a polished mirror finish. It is 13 cm high with a diameter of 6.5 cm. The simple shaker has a steel finish, with a diameter of 5.5 cm and a height of 7.5 cm. The shaker with stencils works by turning the knob, and it is practical for the keen amateur and for the professional behind the counter.

Materials, size and care

Both models are made of stainless steel. The simple shaker has 1.5 mm holes. According to the product sheet they can be washed in the dishwasher: at the end of the cycle, check that they are dry and dry them by hand if needed.

Choosing a model: dusting or latte art

If you only need to dust cocoa, cinnamon or icing sugar, choose the simple shaker. If you want to decorate the foam of cappuccino and coffee, choose the one with 7 stencils: fill the shaker with cocoa or cinnamon, fit and secure the stencil, turn the shaker upside down over the cup and rotate the knob. To change design, remove the threaded ring from the end of the shaker, fit another stencil and screw the ring back on. The stencils fit inside the shaker, so they are stored together.
