What's better: Creme caramel or creme brulee?


Had a terrific creme caramel at Olivar, the Spanish-French with a bit of Italian restaurant I'm reviewing this week. It's not as egg-y as a creme brulee, which I also love. It seems creamier, and I'm a sucker for caramel. (The madeleine was also filled with caramel!)

Heck, panna cotta and flan are faves, too. I'm not sure I've ever had a pudding I didn't like.

Still, the creamy, dreamy stuff comes in second to cake, my top sweet treat.

Let's take a pudding poll: Which do you prefer? Creme brulee? Flan? Creme caramel? Or a good, old-fashioned tapioca?
