Classic custard with great versatility
Obviously a British classic, and still reminds of my childhood every time I have it. It is a great addition to have in the cupboard, if you need a quick and simply custard for a family desert. For me, I much prefer the powdered form due to its versatility as you can easily adjust it to make it as sweet or as thick as you like. The standard taste is still very good, as it is quite creamy. However, I tend to do mine with less powder than recommended as I prefer it runnier with some extra cream and vanilla essence. Great value as the tub can last a few months' worth of desserts.
