Expert Tips

Crepe is the French word for "pancake," and crepes are usually light and paper-thin. They can be made from plain or sweetened batters and are used in both sweet and savory creations.

Crepes can be made ahead, stacked with waxed paper between and refrigerated up to 48 hours. For longer storage, make 2 stacks of crepes, wrap tightly and freeze no longer than 3 months (make 2 stacks so they'll thaw more easily). When ready to serve, thaw frozen wrapped crepes at room temperature about 2 hours or in refrigerator 8 to 12 hours.

A special occasion is a good time to get out the chafing dish from the back of the cupboard--or borrow one--for tableside presentation. Make the crepes ahead, then begin with step 2.

This was so unbelievably easy. My 8-year-old son helped me with it and we had a wonderful time! The orange sauce had just the right amount of orange flavor with a hint of liqueur after we flambe'd it. Felt just like we were at a French cafe in Paris. I made 1-1/2 times the recipe to feed 6 and had no problems. This is a keeper!

It looks very complicated, but it's not. The flavor is incredible and the best part is inexpensive, so this is a very elegant dessert for a great price.
