Creme Brulee (custard topped with soft caramel)

Thanks to my French colleague Laura for introducing me to Crème brulee - just tastes so yummy.

It was in SFO downtown cart. 

This is rich custard base topped with a layer of soft caramel. This is  known as burnt cream, consists of rich custard base topped with a contrasting layer of hard caramerl, served cold.

I tasted nutella with strawberries but this is also available in vanilla, lemon, orange, rosemary choco, green tea pistachio and coconut flavours

The Crème brulee is usually served in discs of caramel and put on top of the custard just before serving, sugar is sprinkled onto the custard and then caramelized with a butane torch
