Ingredients
For the Custard
- 2 cup Milk
- 1/2 cup Sugar
- 1/4 cup Corn Flour
- 2 Egg Yolks
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
For the Layers
- 1.5 cup Chocolate Cake crumbled; britania or similar brand

- 1/2 cup Digestive Biscuits crushed
- 1 Kiwi fresh, sliced
- 1/4 cup Pomegranate Seeds fresh
- 1/2 Mango diced, fresh
Instructions
Prepare the Custard
- Prepare your favorite custard recipe and allow it to cool completely. Ensure the custard is thoroughly chilled for optimal layering and setting.
Layer the Dessert
- In individual serving glasses (parfaits or small bowls work well), begin with a layer of crushed digestive biscuits. This provides a delightful crunchy base.
- Next, add a layer of crumbled chocolate cake, followed by a layer of your chosen fresh fruits. Consider using seasonal fruits for the best flavor and visual appeal.
- Add 1-2 tablespoons of the cooled custard, spreading it evenly.
- Repeat the layering process: orange cake, fresh fruit, and more custard. Continue until the glass is almost full.
- Finish with a final layer of fruit and a light drizzle of custard for an elegant touch.
Chill and Serve
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or preferably longer (up to 2 hours), to allow the flavors to meld and the layers to set properly. The longer it chills, the more the flavors will develop.
- Serve chilled and enjoy your delicious Layered Custard Delight!
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips
- For an extra special touch, use high-quality chocolate cake and fresh, ripe fruits. The better the ingredients, the better the taste!
- Don't overfill the glasses; leave a small space at the top to prevent spillage and allow room for the final custard drizzle.
- Get creative with your fruit choices! Berries, citrus segments, and stone fruits all work beautifully.
- If you don't have digestive biscuits, you can substitute with any crunchy cookie crumbs or even a layer of finely chopped nuts.
