Crème Caramel L.A. was founded
by Kristine de la Cruz, who had
established her local reputation by
selling internationally inspired desserts at farmers markets around
L.A. She designed her new storefront to be an artisanal urban
bodega featuring local products,
coffee, sweets and eats, many of
which she encountered through
her work at the farmers markets.
