Crème brûlée is one of those desserts that look super difficult to make, is a little technical but really easy to nail. Cream is simmered and then poured into beaten eggs and sugar to make a delicious custard base and then baked. Once cooked and chilled the magic begins, sugar is poured over the top and bruleed to perfection. This is not just a tropical twist, it’s also great for people that are lactose intolerant or just don’t want to eat dairy.

I’ve invested in some mini mason jars – they are the perfect size for this dessert and once they’re set I can close them and stack them up in my refrigerator. You will also need a blow torch – these kitchen versions are safe and very inexpensive.
