Very delicious and easy to make dessert. I like adding chunks of jelly in it too. Most popular one in Sindhi homes.

My favourite any day is fruit custard. Since the girls are not here I make it often. Will try adding dates next time. As for custard powder, I have stopped buying it. I use corn flour, colours and essences.
