• Create delicious custard-based desserts: Custard powder makes a perfect base for trifles, tarts, and other layered desserts, lending its creamy texture and vanilla flavor.
• Make vanilla-flavored sauces and creams: Custard powder can be used to create a quick and easy vanilla sauce or cream to serve alongside cakes, fruits, or other desserts.

• Provides carbohydrates for energy.
• Contains starch, which can aid in thickening foods.
• Can be a source of calcium if prepared with milk.
• Offers a base for adding fruits and healthy toppings for a more nutritious dessert.
• May contain small amounts of vitamins and minerals, depending on the specific formulation.

Store custard powder in an airtight container in a cool, dry, and dark place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. This will help prevent clumping and maintain its flavor and thickening ability. Properly stored custard powder can last for up to 12-18 months. Avoid storing it near strong-smelling foods, as it can absorb odors. Do not refrigerate or freeze the powder, as this can introduce moisture and cause it to spoil.
