Why does flan look soooooo good, yet taste sooooooo dull? No flan fans here! Nice photo!

I’m not much of a flan fan either, but I thought this particular recipe tasted quite nice. Perhaps on night when you have nothing else to do and are feeling a bit adventurous, you can make a small batch of this flan. I think the fun variation with coconut milk would be pretty nice…it would be different than the traditional flan.

I don’t believe I am a flan-fan either… but I did greatly enjoy your flan story. :-)

What a beautiful flan! Your close-up was perfect!
And that was a sweet story. Now, you’ll always remember this flan as part of that memory!

I am not a huge flan fan. I am learning that I like the latin version a bit more, they seem to be a bit creamier than others. The texture of the Mexican restaurant flan is not for me. This looks terrific and you are right, it might be better with a bit of zest.

Well, it looks lovely anyway. I think that if I make it again, I will add a pinch of salt to the custard. It was ‘missing’ something, and I think that would balance the sweetness. Your story was very sweet.
