Description

Bring home the authentic, comforting taste of Devon with Ambrosia Devon Custard (Made with West Country Milk – 400g). Crafted at Ambrosia’s historic creamery in Lifton, Devon, since 1917, this iconic dessert sauce has been a staple of British dining tables for generations. Prepared with rich dairy milk from West Country cows, it achieves a smooth, pourable consistency that coats the back of a spoon without feeling heavy or cloying. Whether heated gently on the stovetop to pour over steaming seasonal fruit bakes or served chilled over sponge cakes and trifles, Ambrosia custard delivers consistent creaminess and nostalgic flavor in every spoonful.
