Custard Cake delight recipe with step wise pictorial and video method.

Cake infused custard prepared with simple ingredients makes a delectable treat, which is a mix of dessert cum drink.

We literally don’t know that there’s any such treat exists or not, because we had this treat at some relatives home years ago. It was such a delicious that we thought of recreating it at home, but couldn’t do it for such a long time for no reason.

Though there’s custard cake, custard bread pudding and cake custard trifle recipe in existence, but they are way different asking for cake, custard, whipping cream and lots of fruit and time alongwith money as well.

From being economical in comparison to above mentioned star studded desserts, the present recipe is versatile as well. You can make any combo of flavours by adding different flavoured cake to different flavoured custards.

Also, to save your time, you can always bring the readymade bread cake from the market. What we ate at our relatives place was the slices of Britannia fruit cake being infused into custard.

To make this recipe, nothing complicated needs to be done. Just cake, custard and bit of topping. That’s it.

Yes, what you need to keep in mind that custard shouldn’t be cooked to a thick consistency like that of regular custard eaten alone or with nuts.

The problem with the thick custard will be that it will be tough to introduce itself inside the cake slices. While eating the dessert, you will feel as if you are eating cake and custard separately with no taste of one in another.

Also this is the nature of custard that it gets thick after chilling in refrigerator.

If talking about topping or garnish, though this can be served without garnish but the dish looks less inviting or we would say almost bland. So never miss to do this styling which needs just little things and that too of your choice. We added tutti fruity, pomegranate ariels, chopped nuts and silver balls. Go for anything you want or you love or you have.

So do try this easy and simple dessert which is an amalgamation of cake and custard.
