I've been watching the great British bake off on BBC2 and I love it. Every week it makes me want to attempt a technical challenge or something I've not done before. Anyway last weekend I decided to make am egg custard. As I've said before I'm a cake baker really and had only once before made pastry. I'd been putting off having a second attempt as I thought the success the first time may have been beginners luck :) turns out I can make pastry. It rather labor intensive. I was in the kitchen about 3hours and ended up making chocolate florentines while I was waiting for the pastry to proof. The egg custard was a big success and went down very well at my parents house.
