If you put too much sugar in crème brûlée, it could be that the whole dish was heated too much when the sugar was being caramelized. This can sometimes happen if a regular grill is being used. A blowtorch is ideal as it gives an intense blast of heat in a restricted area. But if you have to use a grill then you could try sitting the dish in a roasting tin filled with ice, as this will help to keep the custard cool.
