DIY custard base

[goddz]

I was wondering, instead of using a vanilla custard concentrate like caps v1, can you make your own base from other concentrates? Any suggestions?

Well seeing as custard is just milk / cream and vanilla with sugar I see no reason why not.

I made some custard at home the other day, did have time to go out and buy some, and had vanilla essence anyway.. It was amazing. If only I could get a juice to taste like that, better than that crap you get in a container

And eggs. Don't forget to add egg concentrate!

Egg white! Not sure if you can get that concentrate! :0

Am I the only person wondering why not use caps v1 rather than make something like caps v1?

Nope I was wondering the same lol.
Unless it's due to the nasties issue in v1 though tbh I am just taking the chance

Ummm I don't use capella in my home made custard... Flavour apprentice custard is half the price and just as good. £3.50 for 30ml on darkstar

Oooo ill have to have a look. That's a good price!

Because I have run out and have a few other concentrates I want to use up before buying more. Plus a variation of taste maybe nice, I can buy a ready made lasagne and whack it in the Mick and Dave for a bit but it doesn't taste as good as a good d home made right?!
