Crème brûlée is a one-of-a-kind dessert.
Although the exact origins of it are disputed, there’s no argument that for those who love it, they can’t get enough. But as delicious as it is, there’s no reason to limit yourself to the traditional recipe when you can enjoy a wide variety of crème brûlée flavors all year long.

Of course, these suggestions aren’t carved in stone but we’ve done our best to pair up the spirit of every season with flavors that remind us of what makes it so special.

Hiya! I’m Kimberly, a contributing writer here at Miss Buttercup. I was born and raised in the UP, Michigan’s Upper Peninsula for those who don’t know, the land of beautiful, beach-filled sunny summer days and bone-chilling long winters. Growing up there made me appreciate all the little things about life, especially the way a delicious meal can bring people closer together. I try and put that same feeling into each article I write and I hope it comes across that way!
