| - Move over cupcakes, pies and ice cream! Burnt to Order specializes in CRÈME BRULEES and they are a vendor in the Blackfoot Farmers Market located behind Espresso PI Café and beside Sugar Creek Gourmet Popcorn!
I discovered Burnt to Order while I was browsing the market. I noticed that they specialized in crème brulees and having the sweet tooth that I have, I HAD to stop and read what was offered..I was instantly drooling. Jesse, who is the owner of Burnt to Order was super friendly and welcoming! She didn't hesitate to tell us about her business and what flavors were offered. They have a simple rustic yet cute set up, wood top tables, and high chairs where you can sit and enjoy your brulee. There is an open glass cooler with the premade mason jars of crème brluee as well as some jars of chocolate and caramel sauce! There is a table in the center where the assembly and garnishing takes place. I love the fact that there are different flavors with both local and exotic ingredients utlized and they have weekly feature flavors that are seasonally inspired and follow trends. She mentioned that the top seller is Cracker Jacked which is a classic Madagascar bourbon vanilla crème brulee with kettle corn on top and drizzled with homemade salted caramel. I love classics and popcorn so my gf and I both went with Cracker Jacked.
Our crème brulees were literally burnt to order, garnished in front of our eyes and served to us. I grabbed my spoon, did the ol' tappity tap on the crystalized sugar and it made a beautiful crack! WOW WOW WOW, the custard was nice and rich, silky smooth, absolutely delicious, really made to perfection!! The crystalized sugar and kettle corn made for a great texture combination with the custard and the vanilla was very obvious within the custard. Looking at the bottom of the mason jar, you are able to see the vanilla beans that sank to the bottom, heavenly!!! While we were really enjoying our brulees, my gf and I were able to sit and chat with Jesse which was really nice and bounce flavor ideas around. We came to the end of our brulees and we were literally trying to scrape every spec of custard and sugar, we were sad that our brulees were gone!! :(
As you know, the crème brulees are served in mason jars - ask for a loyalty card which you will receive an initial for every brulee you order and if you sit and eat your dessert there, return the mason jar for another initial, OR if you want to keep the mason jar you're more than welcome. After 12 visits and/or return of jars, you get a crème brulee for free, loyalty pays off ;) OH!!!! If you're in a rush, you can take your order to go!! She packs all the garnishes separately and has pre-burnt sugar so it will be easy to crystalize at home! Geez, Jesse rules!!
I'm super excited for the success that will come from Burnt to Order!! Not only are her crème brulees really REEEALLLY amazing, but I think all the different flavor combinations and keeping up with seasons will be super beneficial as everyone always wants the next best thing. They also do catering! How cute would these be at a wedding or a girl's night?!!!! Ahhh, the possibilities!! Burnt to Order....you are the next best thing.
