Product Review

These pretty little ramekins are a bit different in style than the traditional vertically rippled cups that look like miniature soufflé dishes. The tall, smooth sides are only interrupted by three horizontal ridges--it's a clean look, and actually makes them more practical. They're easier to grab from under the hot broiler and also easier to scrub clean after use--no more caramelized sugar trapped in the ripples! The smooth interior flares just slightly at the top to provide a broader surface area for that tasty top layer. Each ramekin holds up to 8 ounces when filled to the very brim, and goes easily from freezer to oven or microwave--terrific for make-ahead fruit crisps or cobblers. --Jill Lightner

These are great for a wide variety of uses and in this great red color they are very cute too! Cute, practical and useful - how good can they get!

They are perfect to use for this recipe:

5.0 out of 5 stars Individual Ramekins Hold Three Ounces, January 30, 2001
Michela (Seattle, WA, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Le Creuset Stoneware 4-3/4-Ounce 4-Piece Ramekin Set, Red (Kitchen)
Le Creuset has redesigned their ramekin line so that there are now attractive ridges encircling the pots rather than the vertical ridges that are usually found on other ramekins. These horizontal ridges make the ramekins very easy-to-handle when placing them in the oven or when removing them. This three-ounce size is very small. Be sure to check your recipe in advance to see what size ramekin is needed. Many recipes vary in terms of size requirements. I have found this size is perfect for most desserts, such as crème brulée, flan, chocolate mousse, or a deep-dish fruit tart.

I can't wait to find more recipes for these terrific ramekins! I was a little concerned at first that the may be too small; but, after trying the Molten Chocolate Cakes recipe, I am looking forward to using them again and again. If you are a chocolate lover, definitely try Mary Davis' recipe...they baked up beautifully; and, they had a perfect gooey center. The make-ahead feature is a winner. Easy to handle and to clean. I adore Le Creuset!!
