I was under the impression (perhaps mistaken) that UTC time is different from [NSDate date]. i.e. that it is calculated from a different absolute reference point and has a specific standard for representation.

You just need to use the right time zone with offset zero.
NSDate's description methods use the international representation by default.

So this should do what you want:

[[NSDate date] descriptionWithCalendarFormat:nil timeZone:[NSTimeZone timeZoneForSecondsFromGMT:0] locale:nil];
