May Custard Calendar

So, we didn't get any custard in April. We meant to try the 2 flavors that were new to us but lost track of the days and never made it. Maybe we'll get back into the swing of things this month?


The May custard calendar brings a bunch of repeat flavors (average scores from previous reviews in parentheses), but at least they are flavors we liked, like olive oil cake and chocolate chip cookie:

     Wednesday: oatmeal creme pie (6.25/10)
     Thursday: olive oil cake (7.75/10)
     Friday: chocolate chip cookie (7.5/10)
     Sunday: banana bread (6.75/10)

The flavors that are new to us are lemon meringue (Monday) and black and white cookie (Tuesday). Technically Saturday's flavor - spiced chocolate brownie - is also new, but I think this is just a renamed version of Mexican chocolate fudge brownie from last year (which we both rated a 5).

I'm most intrigued by black and white cookie because I want to see if they can really nail the flavor of a black and white cookie in a custard. And maybe they'll add chewy cookie pieces? It's also a very NY thing, so it would be great to see that one shine. A isn't sure if he's had a real NY black and white cookie, so he's also interested in trying that one. He also wants to see if the brownie flavor is just a rename or if they changed the recipe.

Hopefully we'll make it for some custard this month!
