Lets be honest. The custard slice flopped on this day - Want to know why? LOAD SHEDDING. Everything was going perfectly & then the lights go out. We use gas stoves at campus so we could carry on preparing the custard but the scary part was when it had to go into the fridge to set. The electricity did come back on, but say only 15 minutes before we had to put it in the fridge. So we put it in the freezer & left it in there for about a hour & a half but no luck, it just didn't set. However, looking at the picture below, could you even say that this dish was actually a flop? Not really hey? xP haha.
As for the mixed berry coulis, it was sweet sweet sweet, but that's how they supposed to taste like right? As instructed by Chef Julia, I just presented a lil bit of mixed berry coulis as you do not want it to overpower the custard which was the spotlight of the dish.
Oh yes, & that's another reason why we used a biscuit like a cheese cracker rather than a tennis biscuit - *insert Chef Julia's voice* "NOTHING must overpower the custard" :)
The white icing was just a quick mixture of sugar and water & one more ingredient. A lil bit of that drizzled on the top of the custard slice to give it a lil bit of sweetness.
Until next time, keep your life frosted! <3
