April Custard Calendar

It's April and it's finally starting to feel like spring (at least for today). I was excited to see what types of spring flavors would appear on the April custard calendar and was a little disappointed to see only one fruit flavor listed. 


What we've tried before (with the average of our ratings in parentheses): 

     Tuesday - honey roasted peanut (7/10)
     Wednesday - red velvet (6.75/10)
     Friday - malted marshmallow milk chocolate (6/10)
     Saturday - salted caramel (4.75/10)
     Sunday - Boston cream pie (7/10)

The new ones for us are Arabic coffee crunch (Monday) and strawberry rhubarb cobbler (Thursday). Hopefully this month we remember to try them both. We intended to try waffles and bacon in March, but on our last opportunity to try it, we were running around all day and it completely slipped our minds. Not feeling that compelled to re-try any of the repeats, but if I had to pick one, it would be Boston cream pie and for A it would be honey roasted peanut.

The coffee one sounds interesting. A likes coffee much more than I do (see the coffee and donuts review) but I'm intrigued by the "crunch" part of it. 

We're hopeful about the strawberry rhubarb cobbler since we seem to like the custards which mix in cake or similar desserts (I'm now dreaming about blueberry coffee cake). Last April we got the orange rhubarb meringue, which we didn't love, but hopefully this will be better. We think strawberry and rhubarb usually go well together, and it sounds like something we've tried before, but I can't find a review.

Happy April!
