Frequently Asked Questions

What is crème fraîche?

Crème fraîche is a rich French cream similar to sour cream, but with a thicker, smoother texture and a gentler tang. Its mild flavor makes it an ideal complement to caviar without overpowering its delicate taste.

How should I serve crème fraîche?

Serve crème fraîche well chilled. For a classic caviar presentation, add a small spoonful to a blini or toast point, then finish with your favorite caviar. A little goes a long way—the goal is to complement the caviar rather than cover its flavor.

What should I pair it with?

Crème fraîche pairs beautifully with caviar, fresh blinis, toast points, and smoked salmon. For an effortless appetizer, layer a blini with crème fraîche, smoked salmon, and a small spoonful of caviar.

How should I store it?

Keep crème fraîche refrigerated. Once your order arrives, remove it from the shipping package promptly and place it in the coldest appropriate section of your refrigerator. Caviar Express packages perishable products with Gel-Ice to help maintain freshness during transit.

The current Caviar Express source does not provide a product-specific opened shelf life for this crème fraîche, so I would not add one to the PDP unless Caviar Express confirms it.

When will my order arrive?

Shipping is calculated at checkout, and tracking information is provided once your order ships. Because crème fraîche is perishable, it is packed with Gel-Ice to help protect freshness during transit.

What does crème fraîche taste like?

Expect a smooth, creamy flavor with a restrained nuttiness and gentle tart finish. It is milder than traditional sour cream, allowing the salty, nuanced character of caviar to remain the focus.

Can I serve it with smoked salmon?

Absolutely. Crème fraîche and smoked salmon are a classic pairing. Serve them together on a warm blini and add a touch of caviar for an elegant appetizer that works beautifully for entertaining or an intimate gathering.
