FAQs

🍶 Can I use regular milk instead of evaporated milk?

Yes, whole milk works well if you don’t have evaporated milk. The result will be slightly lighter in texture but still delicious.

🍯 Can I add flavor variations?

Absolutely! You can infuse the milk with:

• Orange zest or lemon peel
• A stick of cinnamon
• A splash of rum or almond extract

Just strain the custard before baking to remove any solids.

🧊 How do I store leftovers?

Cover and store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Avoid freezing, as the texture may change.

⚠️ Why did my caramel harden in the mold?

That’s normal. Once the flan bakes and chills, the caramel will melt into a sauce. Just give it time to rest and chill completely before unmolding.

Note

For best results, always bake your Flan Caramel Royal in a water bath to ensure even cooking and a smooth texture. Avoid overbaking—it should still jiggle slightly in the center when done. Let it chill thoroughly before unmolding to help the caramel sauce release beautifully.

✅ Tip: Use a fine mesh strainer to eliminate air bubbles or lumps in the custard for an ultra-smooth finish.
