Custardo Coffee: Is it a CafePod thing? And Why You Need to Try it.

Custardo Coffee: Is it a CafePod thing? And Why You Need to Try it.

If you love coffee, you’re probably always on the lookout
for delicious ways to enjoy it at home. Well, let us tell you about something
that deserves more attention: custard in coffee (aka a Custardo). Yep, you read
that right. The Custardo is a deliciously indulgent coffee treat that makes you
feel cosy & nostalgic with every sip.

 

The brainchild of our Co-Founder, Peter, the Cortado
combines two of his favourite things: coffee & custard. When meeting Peter,
it won’t be long before he talks to you about his infamous Custardo. And once
you try it, you’ll see why he won’t stop talking about it!

What Exactly Is a Custardo Coffee?

What Exactly Is a Custardo Coffee?

Imagine this: you’ve got a shot of espresso, rich & bold,
just how you like it. Now, instead of adding milk or cream, you stir in warm
vanilla custard.

The result? A velvety, creamy, slightly sweet drink that feels
warming & comforting. The espresso gives you that classic coffee kick,
while the custard adds a smooth, indulgent sweetness that tastes irresistible.
And the best part? It’s ridiculously easy to make at home.

What You'll Need

What You'll Need

An espresso shot of coffee (blend of your choice) & a glass or mug of vanilla custard (a store-bought carton/tub
works great, but you can make your own if you’re feeling fancy)

An espresso shot of coffee (blend of your choice) & a glass or mug of vanilla custard (a store-bought carton/tub
works great, but you can make your own if you’re feeling fancy)

3 Easy Steps

1. Brew one shot of espresso, the way you want to make it.

2. Warm up your vanilla custard either in the microwave or a saucepan—just enough to make it smooth & creamy without boiling it.

3. Add the custard to a mug or glass. Pour the coffee in & give it a good stir. That's it! Your Custardo Coffee is ready.

What Does A Custardo Taste Like?

What Does A Custardo Taste Like?

The magic of Custardo Coffee lies in its balance of flavours.
The espresso is bold & ever so slightly bitter, which pairs well with the silky
mouthfeel & sweetness of the vanilla custard. Every sip feels luxurious,
yet comforting. The custard adds a velvety texture that makes this drink feel
almost like a dessert—imagine a cross between a latte & a creamy custard
dessert like crème brûlée.

 

If you’re someone who loves a sweet coffee treat like a
caramel macchiato or a mocha, the Custardo Coffee is going to blow you away.
But compared to sugary syrup-filled coffees, this has a more comforting, homemade
feel. It’s not overly sweet, just perfectly balanced between the smooth custard
& the robust flavour of the coffee. It's great for those moments when you
want to treat yourself but don’t want something that feels too heavy.

 

The Custardo is also a winner for when you’ve got friends
over & want to impress them with something different. Imagine serving this with
a bite of hot sticky toffee pudding— it won’t be long before your friends are asking
you where you’ve learnt to make such a fancy drink. A simple recipe that’s so
good, you won’t want to share..
