Cream

First, let's start with the less obvious usage, as a masculine noun:
un crème = an espresso with milk



And now for the more usual one:
la crème = cream

For example:

• fraises à la crème = strawberries and cream
• la crème anglaise = custard ("English cream")
• la crème de la crème = the crème de la crème, the very best
• crème fraîche = heavy cream, or crème fraîche, since it recently officially made it as an English word according to the Oxford dictionary (thanks Fredrik)
• crème Chantilly = Chantilly cream
• crème fouettée = whipped cream
• crème brûlée = crème brûlée ("Burnt cream")

and a lot more...
