#CremeFast Wrap-up: Lessons 30-Days Later

We Did It


​We challenged ourselves for 30 days straight to provide you with daily proof that Crème Fraîche can be a simple and delicious part of your everyday breakfast. Now, on the other side of those 30 days, we hope you find yourselves a little less afraid of the kitchen, a little more hungry for breakfast in the morning, and a lot more in love with the “queen of cream”. We, ourselves, feel more confident armed with some new favorite recipes. But no challenge is without its lessons, and #cremefast was no exception. Here are few of ours:

  1. Thank goodness the container is recyclable.  At the beginning of each recipe, we thought one 8 oz Crème Fraîche would be enough, since the recipe would call for just, let’s say, ½ cup. We always found some way to add more, either as a dollop topping or just licking the spoon. Long story short, after 30 days we sure racked up on little tubs.  In hindsight, using the 32oz size would have been far more practical; especially as a more cost and material efficient size for regular use.​
  2. You can never have too much of a good thing, and creme friache definitely goes in category! Crème Fraîche is never redundant, and our first and experience with eating it every morning proves it. Recipes that call for Crème Fraîche in a dish and then suggest it as a topping are the best. Go big or go hungry. 
  3. Our customers and fellow food producers are inspiring. We feel so blessed to be able to go to any of our farmers’ markets    and to come back home with a bounty of new recipe suggestions and the best local goods around. Trying a new dairy ingredient takes guts, and we’re so thankful to have customers like you that are excited to experiment and give us feedback from their own kitchens.  Also, having access to so many local ingredients makes our own experimentation all the more tasty. So, thanks to local cooks and farmers alike!
  4. Creme Fraiche Coffee Cream is NOT the new ‘bulletproof coffee.’ We tried it; so you don’t have to. So don’t. Please. This was the most fantastic failure of our recipe experimentation.

There you have it. This 30-day challenge may be done, but there are so many more meals during the day, and our experimental spirit is only stronger thanks to this Crème Fraîche for breakfast challenge.  Until next time, remember you can find all 30 of our #cremefast recipes right here on our blog. 

​Bon Appetite!
