• Let cool slightly. Cover with plastic wrap, lightly pressing the plastic against the surface to prevent a skin from forming.
• Chill at least 2 hours or until ready to serve. Custard can be made up to 24 hours in advance. Refrigerate up to 1 hour before using. I whipped up some cream and folded it into my cold custard to lighten up the filling, this is now technically called Ambassador Cream

for the basket
