Advantages: everything

Disadvantages: none

When it comes to custard, for me it's a no brainer and I always go straight for the 'Amrbosia custard', I eat it plane or on hot puddings, crumbles and pies and I don't mind anyway as long as it is only this make!

What is it?
It is a tin or custard, it is not the instant stuff wher you have to add water, but is 'pre-made' in a sense and all you have to do is heat it up.

The range?
Yes, there is a range of Ambrosia dessert custard, you can get it in the tin, the bigger carton, little pots, some with strawberry jam, little crumble pots with custard next to it- the list goes on!

The price:
It costs around 50p, costing up to £1 depending where you get it from, I normally buy from Asda or Tescos where it is normally about 50p, but sometimes I pop into independent news agents and there prices can go from a £1 upwards!!

My view:
I love it! To me there is nothing better and there is no other option.
When you first open the tin you are met by this 'thick' gloopy substance, which you sort of have to spoon out to get it all in the bowl. Within 5 or som minutes, it will start to be a lot 'thinner', yet stilly creamy and should be piping hot!
I love to have it on hot puddings, crumbles or pies, but sometimes I just eat alone, but once you first taste it, there is nothing else that tastes remotley like it or has the same flavour. It is still quite thick and creamy and has none of them horrible lumps in it which makes it a nice texture in your mouth. I can sort of taste vanilla very faintly, but can honestly not describe the taste!
It also smell lovely and creamy, it just reminds me of christmas and winter from the minute you put it on the stove!

It is a well known make and once you taste this you'll know why- I honestly think that it is one, if not the best custard.

Overall I'd reccomend this if you want a lovely, warm, creamy, filling treat that is lump free and has a lovely velvety soft texture! Sounds tempting, right? Also per 125g it is only 130 kcal which I think is quite good, for a once in a while treat!

Try it!
