Crème Caramel is a classic dessert consisting of a smooth, creamy custard topped with a layer of soft caramel sauce. It's made from simple ingredients like eggs, milk, sugar, and vanilla. While enjoyed worldwide, it has deep roots in European cuisine, particularly in France and Spain.
This dessert is high in carbohydrates from sugar and fat from milk and eggs, providing a rich source of energy and some calcium. A typical serving contains roughly 250-350 calories.
Its unique preparation involves pouring liquid caramel into a mold before adding the custard, so the sauce magically forms at the bottom and then becomes the topping when the dessert is inverted for serving.
