The History of Catalan Cream Turrón

Catalan cream, or crema catalana, is a traditional dessert from Catalonia, Spain. It has been made in the region since at least the 16th century, though its origins likely date back much earlier. This creamy dessert is believed to have evolved from the ancient Roman custard, which was already being made centuries before the birth of Christ.

Typically, crema catalana consists of a custard made from egg yolks, topped with a layer of caramelized sugar. Maria Simona’s Catalan Cream Turrón uses a similar technique, incorporating caramelized egg yolk and sugar, which is why it is also known as "nougat with Catalan cream." Despite this, it contains no flour or milk, making it a deliciously unique and authentic treat.
