This recipe is sufficient for 8 delicious servings.

Essential ingredients:
- 10 fresh eggs
- 1 liter of milk
- 10 tablespoons of granulated sugar (plus 150 g for caramel)
- 2 vials of vanilla essence
- 1 can of tropical fruits (pineapple, mango, kiwi, papaya)

Step by step: Preparing caramel cream

1. Caramelizing the sugar: In a heavy-bottomed pot, add the 150 g of sugar and a few drops of water. Place the pot on low heat and let the sugar melt, stirring gently to avoid burning. When the caramel turns golden, remove the pot from the heat and quickly coat the walls of the pot where you will prepare the cream. Be careful, as the caramel is extremely hot. Let it cool slightly.

2. Preparing the cream: In a large bowl, beat the 10 eggs well together with the 10 tablespoons of granulated sugar and the vanilla essences. It is important to achieve a homogeneous mixture, so you can use a mixer to facilitate the process.

3. Adding the milk: Heat the milk in a saucepan, but do not bring it to a boil. Once the milk is warm, gradually pour it into the egg mixture, stirring continuously to avoid the eggs from coagulating.

4. Adding the fruits: Drain the tropical fruits from the syrup and add them to the cream mixture. It is good to use a variety of fruits to achieve a complex flavor and interesting texture.

5. Pouring the mixture: Carefully pour the cream mixture over the caramel in the prepared pot.

6. Baking: Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Place the pot with the cream into a larger pot filled with hot water (bain-marie). This step will help with even baking. Bake for about 45 minutes, or until the cream is well set. You can check the consistency with a toothpick; if it comes out clean, the cream is ready.

7. Cooling and serving: Once baked, let the cream cool to room temperature, then transfer it to the refrigerator for a few hours or overnight. Serve chilled, and for an extra touch of flavor, you can add whipped cream or vanilla ice cream on the side.

Useful tips:
- You can experiment with various fruits like peaches or cherries, depending on the season and preferences.
- Make sure to use fresh eggs, as they affect the final texture of the cream.
- If you want a healthier version, you can replace part of the milk with coconut milk for an extra exotic taste.

This caramel cream with tropical fruits is not just a refined dessert but also an excellent way to bring a touch of exoticism to your kitchen. Enjoy every spoonful and savor the compliments from your loved ones!
