Fruit Custard

Fruit custard is a beloved and refreshing dessert, particularly popular in Indian households. It's a delightful blend of a smooth, creamy, and subtly sweet vanilla-flavored custard generously studded with an assortment of fresh, colorful, and juicy fruits.

The custard base is typically made from milk, sugar, and custard powder (or cornstarch), cooked until it reaches a rich, velvety consistency. Once cooled, it transforms into a thick, comforting cream that acts as the perfect canvas for the vibrant fruit medley.

What makes fruit custard so appealing is its versatility and textural contrast. Each spoonful offers the silken smoothness of the chilled custard, complemented by the varying textures of the fruits – The flavors meld beautifully, with the natural sweetness and slight tang of the fruits cutting through the creamy richness of the custard.

Often served chilled, fruit custard is a perfect light yet satisfying dessert for warm weather, parties, or simply as a wholesome treat after a meal.
