What Exactly Is Caramel Brûlée?
Caramel Brûlée, a decadent delight often associated with indulgent desserts, is a culinary marvel that combines the rich, sweet charm of caramel with the crisp allure of a perfectly torched sugar crust. The term "Brûlée" comes from French, meaning "burnt" or "toasted," and in the context of this treat, it refers to the thin layer of sugar on top that's caramelized to create a delightful contrast of textures.
The process involves infusing sugar with heat until it transforms into a golden, crispy crust, which is then cracked to reveal the luscious caramel beneath. This technique is frequently employed in desserts like custards and, of course, the beloved Caramel Brûlée Latte. In this context, the essence of caramelized sugar becomes the star, adding a layer of sophistication and a satisfying crunch to the velvety sweetness of caramel. So, when you indulge in a Caramel Brûlée Latte, you're not just sipping on a drink; you're savouring a harmonious blend of textures and flavours that dance on your palate.
