If you just want to do this as a one-off, without changing AutoCorrect 
settings:
1. Type 'creme', but DO NOT leave the cell yet
2. Select all text in the cell (e.g. Ctrl+A, Edit Select All, click and 
drag, etc.)
3. Now leave the cell (e.g. Enter, Tab, click on another cell, etc.)

I'm not really sure whether this behaviour is accidental or an 
intentional feature, but it's handy when you occasionally want to avoid 
AutoCorrect making a change but don't want to completely disable it.
