Seasons Change, Zulay Milk Frother’s Popularity Remains
One of the most popular products on Amazon right now is a milk frother. Specifically, this milk frother, made by a brand called Zulay.
If you follow Amazon trends as we do, you will recognize the Zulay frother as a semi-permanent fixture on the Amazon best-seller list. It has been there for months! In the winter, especially this past winter, that made perfect sense. A frother is a kitchen device used to make delicious coffee concoctions, such as cappuccinos and lattes. Typically, people buy specialty coffees at their local Starbucks, but this year many people eschewed the coffee shop, either because they were afraid to leave their house due to COVID or because poor economic conditions forced them to save their money. Also, many smaller neighborhood coffee shops tragically went out of business, creating yet another reason for people to make their coffee at home.
Now you see why this product was so popular this year! In seconds, it can turn regular old milk (even milk substitutes like soy and almond milk) into the traditional topping of a café treat. What more could you ask for on a cold winter’s day?
More surprisingly, these frothers are still popular; they continue to rank among Amazon’s very best-selling kitchen products despite the changing of the seasons. This is an odd time to be investing in a tool to make cappuccinos. Summer is coming, people should be investing in cold brew makers!

Even the copy in the frother’s photo conjures up images of colder weather: “Gives that professional finishing touch to latte, cappuccino, macchiato, hot chocolate, and egg nog. Make delicious drinks at home without a trip to Starbucks.” Hot chocolate! Egg nog! This time of year, the Zulay froster seems best suited for those getting read to celebrate Christmas in July.
