I love cooking dessert, to me it’s such a relaxing thing to do, not necessarily an easy one, but a fun one for sure! Eating is a necessity, and no matter if you like cooking or not, you have to feed yourself at least a couple of times a day but desserts? they are just a little extra that is fun to make and fun to eat!

For this creme caramel I tried something different that sadly did not come out the way I wanted it to, I tried going 1/4  with  maple syrup and water and sadly it came out more a syrup than a caramel but it is tasty nonetheless and keeps the treat smooth and tasty all the way through.
