You can never go wrong with preparing crème brulee for your family and friends. The custard itself is delicious but when you brulee it in front of your guests, it takes it to a whole other magical level. Years ago I invested in small 4 oz mason jars I love these because you can set the custard and jut pop a lid on and store them stacked in your fridge till you’re ready to serve. And once you are, just sprinkle over some sugar and brulee – it’s that easy!
