custard cake recipe | eggless custard cream cake | custard powder cake with step by step photo and video recipe. custard recipes are very common in indian cuisine and is mainly used to make dessert recipe. generally it is mixed with milk to form a thick sauce to top with fruits or with other dessert. but this recipe is dedicated to a cake and custard powder is used as flavouring agent and mixed with thick cake batter to make custard cake.

i personally like to have cake recipes all day and there isn’t any specific time to have. having said that, i keep a tab on thick frosting based cake as it is not only cumbersome to prepare, it also contains large amount of sugar. hence most of the time i end up making sponge cake with combination of flavouring agents. custard cake is one such recipe where i inherited the cake recipe from vanilla sponge cake and mixed with custard powder flavours. in addition i topped it with honey and strawberry jam toppings similar to my previous honey cake recipe. thus making a fusion of cake recipes.

you may need to be careful while preparing eggless custard cake recipe, hence few tips and suggestions to make it perfect. firstly, as i showed in the recipe, i would recommend to use a square tin or bread loaf tin instead of round cake tin. this ensures to bake the cake evenly which is important in the case of custard cream cake. secondly, adding strawberry jam frosting is completely optional and can be ignored if it is not required. lastly, you can combine the custard powder with cocoa powder to have chocolate flavoured custard cake recipe.
