Crema Andorrana is a traditional Andorran dessert that closely resembles the famous crème brûlée.

This delightful treat has a rich history, with its roots tracing back to the influence of French and Spanish cuisines on Andorran culinary traditions.

To make Crema Andorrana, you start by preparing a creamy custard mixture using heavy cream, egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla. This mixture is then gently baked in a water bath until it sets perfectly.

Once the custard is cooked, it is topped with a layer of caramelized sugar, creating a delightful contrast between the smooth custard and the crunchy caramel topping.

Some variations of this dessert include infusing the custard with different flavors such as citrus zest or cinnamon to add a unique twist.

In Andorra, Crema Andorrana is often served as a luxurious dessert at the end of a meal, providing a sweet and satisfying conclusion to any dining experience.

While this dessert is undeniably indulgent, it is also relatively high in calories and sugar, so it is best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
