Where to Find the Viral ‘Cracking’ Chocolate Lattes in Bangkok

The cracking chocolate lattes of Bangkok, the chocolate-coated cups that crack when squeezed, have gone viral on Instagram as a result of the Korean trends transported to Thai cafes. Push to crack, drink creamy matcha/coffee indoors, and pick up chocolate pieces to get the best of both worlds; dessert and a drink (THB 120-180). The biggest locations are in Siam, Sukhumvit, and Chinatown, where 2026 lines were 30+ long. The main flavors: matcha, chocolate, dirty coffee, and strawberry; it originated in Nudake, Korea and has been modified there. The Songkran season is flooded by visa-free Indian people. Search in Google Maps for cracking chocolate latte or TikTok cafe – pop-ups are rotated in viral demand.
