I had some trouble getting the sugar crust to caramelize, but other than that, this recipe was great. The crème brûlée was delicious and the pomegranate sauce was a nice touch.

This crème brûlée was a little too tart for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. The texture was perfect and the sugar crust was nice and crunchy.

I'm not usually a fan of crème brûlée, but this pomegranate version was a game-changer! The tartness of the pomegranate balanced out the sweetness of the custard perfectly. I'll definitely be making this again.
