I went on a mission to find French-looking or French-sounding products in a Danish supermarket—and had my French husband taste them! Are they legit or totally fake? Watch to see which ones get the French seal of approval!

  1. Another great video with many good explanations and a general good mood.
    Citron fromage is a Danish take on creme bavarois or it’s a derivative of the original. And like the creme brulee it’s way better home made.

  2. When I was a kid (I'm 65) citronfromage was normal to serve as a dessert, when you had a big celebration . I love it.

  3. Citron fromage was big last century, not so much anymore. 🙂 Easy to do home made also made it in school home Ed 🙂

  4. its very true the individual citron fromage is a rare treat for a specific consumer base. the big ones are fairly common in my experience as a desert. especially at kids parties where volume might might be a factor 😀

  5. My mum made citron fromage for dessert, but hers had whipped cream. But it also exsist with other tastes. Like berrys and buttermilks..

  6. New subscriber here. You two are just too funny. Had me laughing the whole video.

    Lemon fromage was a very popular Sunday dinner dessert at my grandparents' in the 1970s.

    I haven't had it in decades. I don't think it's very popular these days.

  7. Yeah Citronfromage is a clasic, my grandmom use to make it back in the 70/80ish I did not like it as a child as it have grated peel of the lemon in it, I like the chokladmousse that she also sometimes made much more, but all in all I would never buy it in the supermarket, it have to be home made.

  8. Citronfromage is very 80s – one the first dessert that was presented to me when moved to Denmark. Now, it's more a funny thing to present to guests (but years or months can pass in between)

  9. Jup my grandmother made that when I was a kid..
    Now I make it my self.. there are several opskrifter out there. Like Valdemarsro. Dont use the Arla opskrift..

  10. I've just reach the half of the video, I've discovered your chanel. I like the mood of this video. As a french, I would say that lot's of french cheeses does smell, lostly because of their "skin" but at the same time most of these cheeses doesn't taste as hard as they smells.
    Greetings from France.

  11. s'il vous plait, un sous titrage français aiderait bien et danois aussi.. Merci si c' est possible.

  12. Being French and having visited Denmark, I've been very positively surprised to discover how Danish supermakets can be full of products from around the world. There are some very suspicious ones (we laughed at bircks of "Chateau Pinard" as Pinard is French slang for "bad wine", and after testing it at least the name was pretty accurate), but in most cases it's just good quality imports. Swedish people are way more into putting French flags on stuffs we don"t even eat here… ^^

  13. Like many have said Citron fromage is a common desert for many elderly people, we get it every new year (homemade, much more powerful citrus taste) with whipped cream at my parents place. That said, even as a younger generation I actually do like it as well, the version sold in supermarkets are cheap/convenient.

  14. Before Klaus Meyer and René Redzepi put Denmark on the global gastronomic map, Danish chefs were almost exclusively trained in, and inspired by, the French school. As a result, many product names have a touch of Francophilia. You can look forward to:

    Franske kartofler
    Fransk hotdog
    Franskbrød
    Fransk leverpostej (the yellow one from Stryhn's)

  15. tu n'a pas essayé la brousse Corse les femmes nous disait plus de contact si vous mange ca , nous avons toute suite pris un pointe de couteau ca fait pleurer ,mais toujours avec du pain les fromages .

  16. Rue d'Amsterdam Paris il y a une boutique de fromage qui ont toujours au moins 400 different fromages sur les étalages et au-dessus un restaurant qui sert des menus uniquement composées de fromages avec des vins accordée

  17. In the 1970 ties is was a normal homemade dessert, I grew up with it and loved it, citronfromage with whipped cream on top, ooohhh I can almost taste it, dont buy it today in those premade glasses, dont taste as good!!!

  18. finished fromage / mousse is excellent to have as a filling in cakes if you do not want to make your own.

  19. St Nectaire laitier, par opposition à St nectaire fermier.
    Le fermier est fait avec du lait cru à la ferme du producteur ; le laitier est fait en laiterie industrielle, de lait thermisé ou pasteurisé, issu de plusieurs fermes. Du fait du traitement thermique du lait, le laitier a moins de caractère, il est moins goûteux.

  20. hi i'm french and the creme brulée torch "briquet" is very common nowadays and I use it especially to caramelise stuff

  21. 13:10 about the vanilla seeds, sometime they just add « gousse de vanille épuisé » so you can see the black dots, but there’s no more taste to it. Instead of real vanilla seeds. No sure if the case here, but just so you know.

  22. Interesting video. Thank for that. Just one error. Eating different cheeses, you must start from the sweeter to the stronger one. So in this case goat cheese, then St Nectaire, Flurme and Maroilles at the end 😁😉

  23. cool cette vidéo, mais svp la prochaine fois que vous dégustiez des fromages commencés par le plus doux au plus forts en gouts

  24. I’m French: never heard of citron fromage !!! Funny that in foreign countries they use French words for some desserts.
