OUR ISIGNY PDO CRÈME FRAÎCHE
Firm, delicious, generous, and full-bodied… The first cream to be recognised by a Protected Designation of Origin label, Isigny PDO Cream is made using our best milks from the Bessin and Cotentin regions.
This PDO label rewards the quality of our Cream, created from an exceptional terroir and the unique know-how of the men and women of our Cooperative.
It is now overwhelmingly popular worldwide among both consumers and leading chefs for its unique taste, ivory colour and firm texture.
Isigny PDO Cream is a refined cream,described by some as “extraordinary”.
It can be melted, whipped, mixed, whipped into a Chantilly-type cream, used as a topping, etc.
In restaurants, it can be used warm or cold, offering a creaminess and texture that holds up well to cooking, and can be used to make sauces and accompany fish or meat dishes.
