The flat white is a smooth, velvet-like milk mixed with espresso to form a silky finish, and a cappuccino includes a thick, frothy top coat of foam covering a cup of espresso and steamed milk, A cappuccino is slightly lower in calories than a latte or flat white at 110 calories and six grams of fat with full cream milk, but contains slightly lower calcium because of the milk/froth ratio," explains Burrell
flat white was neither a wet cappuccino nor a dry latte. "The real difference is the amount of froth on top. Cappuccino actually translates to 'cap of foam', so it has the most amount of foam. ... It's just coffee with warm milk with less froth than a latte.
