National Caramel Custard Day

Today is National Caramel Custard Day! Caramel Custard is a rich, flavorful dessert that originated in Europe. The Ancient Romans experimented with the binding properties of eggs in their cooking, but custard as we know it didn’t emerge until the Middle Ages.

Today, there are many variations of the classic custard dessert. These include vanilla, lemon, and caramel. To celebrate National Caramel Custard Day, try your hand at making your own caramel and pour it over custard for a scrumptious treat!
