About Brioche with cream

Brioche with cream is a rich, buttery bread pastry of French origin typically enjoyed as a dessert or breakfast item. Brioche is made with a high proportion of butter and eggs in comparison to other bread types, giving it a tender crumb and slightly sweet flavor. Combined with cream, it becomes an indulgent treat. Nutritionally, brioche provides carbohydrates primarily from flour, fats from butter and cream, and a modest amount of protein from eggs. While brioche with cream is energy-dense due to its high fat and carbohydrate content, it lacks significant fiber or micronutrients, making it best enjoyed occasionally or as part of a balanced diet.

Health Benefits

• Eggs in brioche supply vitamin B12, which supports red blood cell formation and neurological function.
• Butter provides vitamin A, essential for maintaining healthy vision and immune function.
• Cream contains calcium, which is vital for bone health and muscle function.
