Crema Catalana literally translates to Burnt Cream and it was called so because in the 18th century, a Catalonian Bishop was nearly served a runny custard. To fix the mess, the host decided to add a brittled sugar top. As soon as the Bishop took a bite, he yelled “Crema” (Burnt) and such goes the story.
