Crêpes Suzette are associated with France as their listed country of origin.
The dessert combines thin crêpes with beurre Suzette, a sauce of caramelized sugar, butter, citrus juice and zest, plus an orange liqueur such as Grand Marnier. It is often flambéed at the table, creating the dramatic flame associated with the dish.
Its exact origin is disputed. One famous account credits Henri Charpentier with creating it in 1895 at Café de Paris in Monte Carlo while serving the future King Edward VII. Other chefs and restaurants have also been linked to its invention, so the story should be treated as a tradition rather than settled fact.
A common mix-up is assuming “Suzette” refers to a particular type of crêpe. The name describes the citrus-butter sauce and finished dessert, not a separate batter.
