By far the best freeze dried dessert. Share it with my group on our last night at Rae Lakes loop and everyone kept saying they wish the knew about it. My wife has me buy extras just so she can have them at home.

Delightful Decadent Dessert

We don't wait until we're camping to make delicious meals with Backpacker's Pantry. We will frequently raid our stash to make dinner or dessert. The Créme Brulee is delightful!!

Hey Rebecca! Thanks for the kind words! We appreciate you as a customer and hope you are having fun out there!

Glad you enjoyed this meal!

Omg, don’t sleep on this! So good

I wasn’t expecting much for a dessert that you just add water. It’s so convenient, you don’t even need hot water. It exceeded my expectations, and I’m buying more. So I apologize if it’s sold out. It’s because of me.

Glad you enjoyed the meal, Jamie!

Excellent Dessert…or Breakfast

We enjoyed the crème brûlée for breakfast as much as we did for dessert. Who says you can’t have dessert for breakfast while backpacking?!? The texture can be a bit alarming if you don’t mix it up well but we didn’t mind.

Thank you for the great review! We are so glad you enjoyed our Creme Brulee and agree it is also an excellent breakfast!

Great flavor, strange texture

I absolutely loved the flavor of this dessert, but the texture didn't do it for me. It was very gummy and the sugar clung to my teeth - something I hate while backpacking. But the flavor really is spot on!

Best Thing I've Ever Tasted

After a long and incredibly grueling day #1 to a backpacking trip, my friends and I split one of these pouches. And, maybe partly due to the exhaustion and end-of-day hiking high, it was the best thing I've ever tasted. Any meal, ever - literally. It's that orgasmic. I hold the memory of that night very dearly. I've since eaten an entire pouch in one sitting before (enjoyable if you're big and hungry). Thank you BP.

Thank you for such a great review, Ryan! We are so stoked to hear that you loved our Creme Brulee so much!

SOOOOO GOOD!

BY FAR the best camping desserts I've had. It has become a part of my backpacking staples and part of the experience I look forward to enjoying... especially when chased with a swig of whiskey. Just sayin' :)

Wow, thank you Alyssa! We are so glad you enjoy our Creme Brulee! And a great tip ;)

Yummy trail treat!

We love this as a nice treat at the end of a long day hiking. The brûlée sugar crumbles are a nice consistency and add nice crunch.

Thanks for the great review, Laura! We're so glad you enjoyed your Creme Brulee!

Awesome desert I loved it

too much for one person

This is a two-serving dish - be warned! It's way too much for one person to finish. But oh so delicious.

creme brulee desert** delicious suprise**

the product was very good and tasty, a nice treat to being in the woods for several days, only comolaint was that i felt it needed more of the caramel sugar for the portion size.

DELICIOUS!!

Delicious dessert

Loved this dessert in the backcountry. Easy to prepare and the sugar topping was sooooo good. I will purchase this again!

Smooth and silky.

The custard was smooth and silky. A great treat for dessert. The extra calories after a long day's hike are a plus.

Cheesecake

The treat is easy to make and tasty. However, I’m not sure why it is marketed as Creme Brûlée. It tastes like cheesecake and that is actually the first ingredient on the package.

If the package said “cheesecake” dessert, I would give a 5 star and say spot on.

…But for those who actually want to taste creme brûlée…this is not it.

Good enough to eat at home!

Gave this a try on our most recent 4 day backpacking trip. It was a fan favorite! It was very easy to make (it requires cold water so you don’t even have to break out the jet boil). I let everyone at camp (there were 8 of us) try it and they all said that next backpacking trip we have to bring one of those for each night that we are in the backcountry. One of them even said that he would eat it at home. The dessert was almost like a pudding with a subtle vanilla taste, and the brûlée sugar packet inside really added that extra wow factor. 10/10 would buy again!

Not a fan

I decided to try this dessert because I love creme brûlée. I did not like the taste at all and certainly doe snot taste like creme brûlée.

Unbelievably Delicious!

I have been buying this product for years! I love it. I tried it at my desk at work one day, many years ago, to see if I liked it. I ate my stash for camping and had to buy more. It taste like cheesecake to me. Yum! Genius dessert!

fluffy, flavorful, flawless

This is it. You've arrived. We saved this dessert for the last night of a week long backpacking trip and this exceeded our expectations. Fluffy, smooth, flavorful and nice crunchy bits of caramel crunch to give it the creme brulee flair. I'm stocking up on a few more to celebrate the high points on future trips!

So good!

I don't even know what to say to convey my love of this stuff. It's so amazing! Seriously, if you're reading this, you should definitely "risk" it and get one. It's easy to make, and it's like a gourmet treat wherever you are. The sugar topping is perfectly crunchy, and there is a large portion to share or keep all to yourself. Please do yourself a favor and try this!
