What it is
Crème fleurette is a type of fresh cream that has been pasteurized. It is a dairy product made from milk. This particular product comes in a small 100ml container, making it convenient for single uses or small batches of recipes. It has a relatively high fat content, which contributes to its richness and smooth texture. It is a versatile ingredient found in many kitchens.
How people cook with it
This fresh cream is ideal for adding richness and body to both sweet and savory dishes. It can be used in a variety of cooking and baking applications.
- Whisking into sauces
- Adding to coffee
- Incorporating into desserts
- Enriching soups
Crème fleurette can be gently heated and stirred into sauces to create a smooth, creamy consistency. It is also excellent when whipped to form a light topping for desserts or used as a base for custards and mousses. For savory applications, it can be added to soups, stews, or gratins to enhance their flavor and texture. Avoid boiling it vigorously, as this can cause it to separate. It blends well with other liquids and ingredients.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to heavier creams like whipping cream, crème fleurette typically has a slightly lower fat content, making it less prone to over-whipping. It is also less dense than double cream, offering a lighter richness. Its fluidity makes it easy to incorporate into various recipes without requiring extensive preparation.
Who it is for

How to keep the rest
Once opened, refrigerate any unused portion of the crème fleurette. It should be consumed within a few days to maintain its freshness and quality. Keep the container tightly sealed to prevent it from absorbing odors from other foods in the refrigerator.
