Crème fraîche d'Isigny

Crème fraîche d'Isigny is a high-quality, thick cream from the Isigny-sur-Mer region in Normandy, France. This area is renowned for its rich dairy products due to the lush pastures and temperate climate, which contribute to the superior quality of the milk produced there.

Crème fraîche d'Isigny has been granted Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) status, ensuring that it is made in a specific geographic area using traditional methods. This status guarantees the cream's authenticity and quality. It typically has a fat content of around 40%, giving it a rich, velvety texture and a luxurious mouthfeel.

The cream is slightly fermented, providing a tangy, nutty flavor that distinguishes it from other types of cream. It is highly versatile in culinary applications, suitable for both sweet and savory dishes, such as sauces, soups, desserts, and as a topping for fruits or pastries.
