"Creme de la creme" is a phrase in French, which literally translates as "The best of the best." It is possible that this phrase was the inspiration for the English language idiom "Cream of the crop," which usually denotes the best of any number or set of people, places, services, or performance. It is also the name of a somewhat obscure french dish, made from refined cream and usually served cold with cake.
