Tips
- Learn the basics of vegan custard: if you want to learn more about how to make the perfect vegan custard, check out our full vegan custard guide. Vegan custard is easy to make and as delicious as regular custard.
- Add some chocolate at the end: for an even richer coffee flavour custard you can add a few pieces of dark chocolate in it at the end. The chocolate will make the custard richer and will enhance the coffee flavour.
- Cool down bain-marie: if you are making your custard in advance, the best way to cool it down is bain-marie, to prevent the thin skin layer on top.
Storage
You can store this vegan coffee custard in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days. Let it cool down then cover it with reclaimable wrap and make sure the wrapping touches the coat of the custard to prevent a thin crust from forming. You can reheat the custard on low inflame by adding a dash of plant milk while stirring.
We do not recommend freezing the custard, unless you want to make ice cream out of it .
It is potential that during the cool march the custard will dry out on the surface and make a dilute skin that will result in annoying lumps. If you are annoyed by the lumps then you can always blend the custard with a hand blender. We sample and it works.
