Review of PC Crème Brulée

Posted by darleya

They can’t spell it right (ahem, créme brûlée), but man, they’ve definitely made it right.

I was skeptical about this dessert simply because I love French cuisine, and I looooooove Crème Brûlée; providing it is made right.

President’s Choice manages to come up with a crème brûlée that’s ready to eat in just 10 minutes. There are two ways you can prepare it, you can either use the conventional oven, or torch it. Not having a torch in my kitchen, I opted for the oven version.

The dessert comes with a little sachet that has carmelized sugar powder in it. All I had to do was sprinkle the sugar powder evenly to the top of the glass container(or ramekin) of creme dessert, place it on a baking sheet and broil for 4-5 minutes. You remove it from the oven and let it sit after another 5 minutes to cool down, and voilà! It looks perfect, and just how you would expect it should.

It was simply delicious! Since the pack comes with two, I’m hoping my husband will be silly enough to give me the second one, too. Oh, and you can keep the little glass dessert bowls after; an added bonus.

Side Note: Make sure you have two sugar sachets for your desserts as they can easily fall out. Ours lost a sachet, so I’m going to use brown sugar for the second one.

Enjoy!
