Description:

Custard is a creamy, smooth dessert or sauce made from a mixture of milk or cream, sugar, and egg yolks. It’s commonly flavored with vanilla, but other flavors like chocolate, caramel, or fruit extracts can also be used. The mixture is gently cooked over low heat or baked until it thickens, creating a velvety texture. Custard can be served warm or chilled and is versatile in its use.

It can be eaten on its own, used as a filling for pastries and pies, or served as a topping for cakes, fruit tarts, and desserts like trifles. Crème brûlée, flan, and crème pâtissière are popular types of custard-based desserts. For a lighter version, custard can be made with fewer egg yolks or with a cornstarch thickener for a more pudding-like consistency. This dessert is loved for its sweet, rich flavor and comforting texture\
