This subtly flavoured lemon custard is perfect for many applications - torte, pastries, cannoli, or eat it all on it's own!

I remember the silky smooth custard my mother used to make as a dessert when I was a child, and I am pretty sure it was the real deal. It took ages, but Ioved it; hot, cold or anywhere in between. This is no different, without the hours at the stove. You can be eating this fairly quickly after deciding you need dessert...scary really. It is also fantastic as a dessert accompaniment, but for my money? A bit of Coulis...and you’re in quickest ever dessert heaven.

There is nothing quite as delicious as a custard based dessert for me, I could write an ebook, we have so many ideas. Here are just a few more to be taking a look at:

English Custard Tarts

Pistachio Custard Pudding

Coconut Lime Custard Pie

Polish Vanilla Slice

Fried Custard with Spiced Passionfruit Syrup

Orange Cinnamon Flan
