In the Burgundy region of France is the legendary maker of fine French cookware named Emile Henry. There, potters still hand craft each piece from the local Burgundy Clay - one of the purest of clays, and finish each one with a process known as CERADON, which makes them extremely solid and durable. Containing no lead or cadmium, the clay is one of the best materials for baking and serving.

Amazon.com Review
Ideal for baking individual custards and soufflés, molding pâtés, and serving condiments, dips, sauces, candies, and nuts, these four 6-ounce ramekins are a traditional French shape with ribbed exteriors. They can go directly from freezer to oven, into the microwave, under the broiler, and through the dishwasher without harming their glossy, lead-free glaze, which does not absorb odors or moisture and is so hard it will not crack, discolor, or scratch--even if food is cut on it. They measure 3-1/2 inches in diameter and 1-7/8 inches high.

Since 1850, Emile Henry cookware and bakeware have been made in Burgundy, where a unique clay is kiln-fired into a ceramic unsurpassed for conducting and retaining heat. Prized worldwide, Emile Henry products come in a wide range of colors, from the earth tones (with creamy interiors) of the rustic Le Potier line to the bright hues (with white interiors) of the Couleurs line, of which these all-white ramekins are gleaming examples. Each piece is stamped with the year it was made and the initials of the craftsman responsible for its perfection and carries a one-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

Perfect for Creme Brulee or other custards or Yogurt
These are simply the best containers for making creme brulee. They are a perfect single serving size. They hold up to the heat and never discolor or change the taste of the food.

In fact I have even been served these exact Ramekins in a restaurant, that should speak to their quality. We also use them to serve sauces when we serve buffet style or for holding measured ingredients when cooking.

A very simple, elegant and relativly inexpensive kitchen accessory.

Excellent ramekins
My wife loves the set of 4 Emile Henry Couleurs 6oz ramekins. She says they are perfect for all sorts of individual-portion desserts that require baking.

Great for ice cream and a hit with preschoolers
We use these for everything: berries, nuts, raisins, yogurt, ice cream. My nephew loves them for his chocolate chips, Annie's bunny crackers, raisin and blueberry mixes, and frozen berries...and, of course, ice cream. They're ideal for smaller portions. They're easy to clean and dishwasher safe.
