the difference is in the amount of foam on the top.

A cappuccino is suppose to:

1) have less milk than a latte, hence it is stronger.
2) have more foam on the top (i.e. about an inch of frothy goodness).


From what I understand from my friends in the riviera, latte (or cafe au lait) in the morning and a cappuccino in the afternoon... never the reverse.
