Thanks to the coffee connoisseurs at Ripples, you can now turn your selfies into latte art.

The Ripple Maker, a new high-end coffee maker for restaurants, links to your phone and can "print" your photos on your favorite drink.

Clean images with a clean background work the best, according to the Ripples website -- so get ready to drink lattes topped with adorable foamed photos of your dog, your friend's dog or your face with a dog.

Merging coffee addiction with narcissism won't come cheaply, though. The machine clocks in at a pricey $999 with an $85 monthly service plan for the smallest Ripple Maker. This steep price of entry means selfie latte art may be limited to the richest selfie enthusiasts like Beyoncé and the Kardashians.

UPDATES:

Jan. 13th, 2 p.m.: In an email to Mashable, Ripples managing director Ian Twin clarifies, "The Ripple Maker is not a high-end coffee machine for consumers. It is a professional device that restaurants, hotels and coffee shops would own. Consumers can download the Ripple app and send the content from their phone to machines but it isn’t something they would be able to buy."
