Ambrosia Chocolate Custard Dessert Can

Ambrosia chocolate custard is a ready-made, chocolate-flavoured custard in a can, served hot or cold with puddings, cakes and fruit. It is smooth and thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. It saves you making custard from scratch.

The taste is sweet and mellow, with a gentle chocolate flavour rather than a bitter dark one. That makes it a familiar choice for family puddings and after-school treats.

Ways to Serve Chocolate Custard

Chocolate custard works best poured over something warm, soft or fruity. Here are some common ways to use it:

  • Over steamed sponge pudding or sticky toffee pudding
  • With apple or rhubarb crumble for a chocolate twist
  • Poured over warm chocolate brownies
  • As a layer in a trifle with sponge, banana or cherries
  • Spooned cold into a bowl and topped with grated chocolate or crushed biscuits
  • With sliced bananas or raspberries

How to Heat Canned Chocolate Custard

The easiest way to heat this custard is gently, in a small pan on a low heat. Tip it out of the can and stir often so it does not catch on the bottom. Stop when it is hot, not boiling.

You can also warm it in a microwave-safe bowl in short bursts. Stir between each burst so it heats evenly. Serve it straight away while it is smooth and pourable.

Chocolate Custard Ideas for Cold Desserts

Cold chocolate custard sets slightly thicker, which suits layered desserts. Spoon it into glasses between crushed biscuits or sponge fingers for a quick pudding. Chill the glasses before serving. The custard also works as a simple dip for fruit or a topping for cold rice pudding.

Chocolate Custard FAQ

Can you eat Ambrosia chocolate custard cold?

Yes, chocolate custard can be eaten cold straight from the can. Many people prefer it chilled in trifles and layered desserts.

How do you stop canned custard from sticking when heating?

Heat it slowly on a low heat and stir all the time. A heavy-based pan helps. In a microwave, stir after every short burst.

Can you use chocolate custard in a trifle?

Yes, chocolate custard makes a good trifle layer. Pour it over sponge and fruit, let it cool, then add cream on top.

Add a can to your basket for the next sponge pudding or trifle you plan to make.

Disclaimer

We take great care when preparing and securely packing every order; however, during transportation, parcels may be handled by several parties, including the courier, and despite our best efforts, minor cosmetic damage such as dents, marks, scuffs or damage to external packaging may occasionally occur. Minor cosmetic damage that does not affect the product’s safety, quality or intended use will not normally be considered a product defect. This is particularly applicable to products supplied in cans, tins, plastic containers, boxes or similar packaging. If you receive a product that is broken, leaking, materially damaged, unsafe, unusable or otherwise not as described, please contact us within 24 Hours of delivery by email or telephone and provide your order number, details of the issue and clear photographs of the damaged product and packaging. We may require further information or evidence to investigate the matter and, where necessary, may take up to 14 days to complete our investigation. Where damage appears to have occurred during delivery, we may need to raise a claim with the courier, and you may be required to complete and return any Damage on Receipt (DOR) form or other documentation requested by the courier before the claim can be processed. Some products we sell are price-marked or display a manufacturer’s recommended or printed retail price. Please note that our online selling prices may differ from the price printed on the product because online orders involve additional costs such as picking, packing, packaging materials, warehouse handling, payment processing, website administration and delivery-related costs. You may therefore receive a product displaying a printed or recommended retail price that is lower than the price you paid online. The price you agree to pay is the online selling price displayed on our website at the time you place your order, and the presence of a lower printed or recommended retail price on the packaging does not, by itself, mean that the online purchase price was incorrect. Product images displayed on our website are for illustration and presentation purposes only. Actual product packaging, branding, design, colour, size, shape or appearance may vary depending on availability, manufacturer, batch or packaging updates. Such variations do not necessarily indicate that the product supplied is different from the product ordered, provided that the product itself corresponds to the description and specifications stated on the website. We ask customers to check their order and products as soon as reasonably possible after delivery and contact us promptly if there is any material damage, fault, incorrect item or issue with the goods.
