haha the thought of someone gagging for custard is amusing to me, not sure why? However, I too miss the simple pleasure birds eye custard offers and so will keep an eye open... I remember being able to buy it when I was in Japan a few years ago so hopefully someone's importing it here too. |

I guess you'll need to start looking for some of those Heinz steamed sponge puddings to go with the custard.
There's a shop in Doota at Dongdaemun market that has some foreign foods and also a section in the food hall in the basement of Hyundai department store at Samsung. This is at the other end of the Coex mall from the subway station. I'm not sure either of these places stock it, but they are possibilities. Maybe the Indian place in Itaewon?
But, Bird's Eye custard is rank man - it's just cornflower and vanilla flavouring - you can make your own custard from eggs, sugar and vanilla extract - it's way better. Anyway that's my twopence worth. |

We used to get warm shortbread with custard, or chocolate sponge cake with custard.
Works well with any baked goods. |

You can get it from the Pakistani Buffet" Usmania". across the street from the Mogal down the road from 3 Alley Pub on the Hamilton hotel side.
I'm sure they must get it from somewhere possibly one of those Halal Muslim shops. |

I was always a fan of chocolate custard with chocolate pudding. Without a shadow of a doubt, my favourite dessert at school. |
