About Creme citron

Crème Citron is a velvety lemon cream dessert originating from French cuisine, celebrated for its tangy and indulgent flavor profile. Made primarily with fresh lemon juice and zest, eggs, sugar, and butter, its rich texture is achieved by gently cooking the ingredients until smooth and creamy. The citrus component adds a dose of vitamin C and antioxidants, offering some nutritional value, while the presence of eggs contributes protein. However, the high sugar and butter content make it calorie-dense and rich in saturated fats, which should be consumed in moderation. Often enjoyed as a standalone treat or a filling for tarts, Crème Citron embodies the classic balance of tartness and sweetness characteristic of French desserts. While it delivers a burst of refreshing flavor, mindful portioning is recommended to fully savor its charm while maintaining a balanced diet.
