I was in Gruyere just recently and happened to go the the Chalet and have meringues with double creme and they were unbelievably delicious. Almost licked the plate clean! I am now looking for a recipe to make them…don’t know where I can get double creme…someone told me that it is like creme anglais, but I will have to research that further and the meringues were really light and sweet. If anyone knows the recipe, let me know.
Thanks.

I had the pleasure of visiting Gruyeres a few weeks ago. I had the double cream (cream glace for dessert) LOVED it, the texture and taste is unbelievably rich and creamy. Unless you actually have some of that cream you just can’t fathom how good it is! I would love to be able to purchase some and have it shipped to the U.S. but can’t find any info

That takes me back…
I used to live in Gstaad and often visited Gruyères for their infamous double cream…. For those of you who had not have the privilege of tasting this magnificent sweet, let me tell you this. It has been 16 years that I have last tasted this cream and still can not get it out of my head because it is that good. Just imagine it over strawberries and raspberries himmmm. They used to serve it in wooden cups and I still have one after all these years. To bad they do not have it in the U.S. Thank you for the delightful pictures…

Kerrin – we used to have a Movenpick line of restaurants in Canada, back in the 90′s. Sadly, they’re all gone now…

I WANT to gain a pound back (of the 4 I’ve lost over the past few weeks) after seeing this. The ice cream, “Movenpick” sounds like magic for my tongue. I’m an ice cream fiend. Alas, it’s been completely cut from my diet plan for now. With any luck, I’ll dream about it tonight. And I wish I knew French. For some reason, this post deserves comments chocked full of French superlatives.
