The Review
The cappuccino flavor in this Levels powder is genuinely distinct — it's not just "coffee flavored," it has that specific espresso-and-steamed-milk character that makes a cappuccino different from a regular coffee. That nuance survives freezing and spinning, which is impressive. Most coffee powders lose complexity in the Creami; this one doesn't.
Texture is the same excellent baseline as Levels Vanilla Bean — dense, smooth, no icy pockets, holds up well. The slightly lower calorie count (348 per pint) keeps the macros clean without sacrificing the creamy mouthfeel.
The Oreo Thins pairing here is exceptional. The vanilla cookie note in the Thins complements the cappuccino flavor in a way that's hard to describe but easy to understand once you taste it — it's like a frozen tiramisu. This is one of the best Oreo pairings in the entire lineup.
Sweetened with stevia and monk fruit, same as Vanilla Bean. Clean label, no artificial sweeteners. If you're a coffee person and you've only tried Vanilla Bean, this is the next powder to buy.
