Crème anglaise - European Score 100/100

European Score analysis

Carrefour's Crème anglaise is a vanilla custard cream produced in France, achieving a perfect score of 100. The breakdown awards full marks for company headquarters and manufacturing in France, a maximum ingredients score of 10, and the full distribution score, alongside a proximity score of 5. No certifications are held, but the product carries made-in-France and green dot labels, providing basic provenance and environmental packaging transparency.

At the 82nd percentile among 38 products in the light custard cream with vanilla category, this product sits alongside other French-made custard creams in the upper tier of the category. The absence of organic or other third-party certifications is the principal factor preventing it from reaching the very top of the ranking, though its fully French supply chain and clean label profile ensure a strong relative position.

For shoppers seeking a mainstream French vanilla custard cream with straightforward made-in-France credentials and no artificial additives implied by its clean label, this product is a reliable everyday option. Its Carrefour branding provides wide retail accessibility, while the made-in-France designation confirms domestic production. It competes comfortably in its category on the strength of its supply chain transparency alone.
