I made this recipe today using my new dariole molds. The carrot gives it a completely different texture to custard and I think a tad more sugar wouldn't go astray.  I quite enjoyed it though, certainly different but very easy to make.

It's the kids that have stopped my trying this one out for years. It has always pulled at my interest

Thanks Denise, the plates belonged to Geoff's grandmother or great grandmother I think, made in Austria and are stamped Pure Royal Vienna so they would have to over a 100 years old. Yikes, maybe I shouldn't be using them.

Kathryn, it only makes 6 little custards so you could have them all to yourself if the kids didn't like them.

I'm a believer in using everything Judy.

I don't need that sort of encouragement Judy!!!! 

I believe in using everything too - no good filling up the cupboards just to look pretty
