Sucre à la crème is a traditional French-Canadian sweet treat made primarily from sugar and cream, often enjoyed during holidays and festive gatherings. This simple yet indulgent dessert, typically cooked on the stovetop, results in a creamy, fudge-like consistency. It reflects the agricultural roots of Québec, where dairy products and maple syrup (sometimes added for flavor) are abundant. Historically, sucre à la crème was made by families to preserve and showcase local ingredients. It remains a nostalgic favorite, symbolizing comfort and old-fashioned homemade goodness.
