Crème brûlée has 285 kcal per 100 g. French custard with a torched sugar crust. Egg yolks and heavy cream make it dense (19.5 g fat per 100 g). The signature crackable top adds 5–10 g sugar on top of the base custard. A standard ramekin is ~130 g, around 400 kcal.
How should I track Creme Brulee?
The trickiest part about tracking Creme Brulee is that small portions pack a lot of calories, and most people estimate sweet portions poorly. Research (Almiron-Roig et al., Appetite 2013) found that calorie-dense foods are underestimated by 50–200% when portioned by eye. Weighing on a scale takes the guesswork out. And here is the mindset shift that helps: tracking sweets is not about guilt. It is about awareness. When you log a treat honestly, you can plan around it and still hit your targets for the day.
