Excellent, good vanilla flavor, ultra simple to make. The secret is to remove it from the heat as soon as it starts to boil, otherwise the cream will curdle and it's ruined. -

Very good! This is the first time I tried a custard, and I didn't mess it up!! It is quite sweet, that's true, but it's not a bother for me. It depends on personal taste, you can always put in a little less sugar! -

Great, I will buy more for the softness; it's good, as Solange says. Kisses! I'm only 11 years old, and I do it all by myself. When I grow up, I will be a chef! -

Excellent But next time I will use a little less sugar My suggestion: Served with a vanilla/chocolate banana marble cake and Italian meringue... I admit, it was a indulgent Sunday ;-) -

Delicious It is delicious. I made it for my son's 7th birthday; 10 friends were there, and they loved it. I have already tried your other recipes; it's a shame there are only 3! When will you offer more?
