Wrap-A-Latte Sleeve a Stylish Way to Keep Hands Cool
Nov 12 2009 by Sara Lacey
I was sitting with Chief Mama Kristin in a Starbucks recently when I first saw the cute pink-and-green sleeve wrapped around a woman’s cup of joe, replacing the usual brown cardboard sleeve. It had a pink monogram on it, too. After a little digging, I discovered it was a Wrap-A-Latte. Its makers, the kind folks at It’s a Wrap, sent me a sleeve to test out.
What did I like most about it? It wasn’t that I could finally find something to assuage my guilt over throwing the cardboard sleeves away when I’m done with them (they’re made of recycled paper, but I don’t always recycle them). It wasn’t the cute pattern (37 choices) or the monogram. It was the fact that it worked! It fit on all standard-size paper coffee cups that I tried. My hand never got too hot while using the Wrap-A-Latte (yes, I’m a wimp). Even better, the inside of the sleeve has a neoprene-like grippy material on it, so it doesn’t slip around and fall off. Awesome!
Wrap-A-Latte is available at several online boutiques and cost around $12. What a perfect teacher gift, hostess gift or stocking stuffer for the holidays. I’m probably going to pair them with some gift certificates and call it good!
My only problem with the Wrap-A-Latte is I lost it, which is in typical fashion for me. Like the canvas grocery bags I use about 50 percent of the time, I need to be more diligent about keeping track of and using my green products. Hey, Wrap-A-Latte, do you make coffee-sleeve leashes? Sheesh.
