Crepe Suzette is a French dessert consisting of a crêpe with beurre Suzette, a sauce of caramelized sugar and butter, on top. The dish was created in 1895 by a 16-year-old apprentice waiter named Henri Charpentier at the restaurant "La Maison Dorée" in Paris. It was named in honour of the 19th-century diplomat and prime minister of France, Charles-Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord, whose nickname was "Suzette".
