Homestead Creamery’s eggnog and custard are available for the holiday season! While many are familiar with our beloved eggnog and custard, others still may be wondering: what is the difference between the two?
The Flavor Characteristics
Even though both eggnog and custard start with the same base of egg and cream, they taste quite different! Eggnog is warm and rich while custard offers a lighter flavor of vanilla!
As a seasonal classic, everybody loves a good ole glass of eggnog. The perfect balance of nutmeg and cinnamon fills your mouth with the holiday spirit. Eggnog is a great addition to your pumpkin spice lattes, baking shenanigans or just sitting by the fire. Eggnog is a holiday season classic with the perfect balance of nutmeg & cinnamon!
Old-fashioned custard (or boiled custard) takes a lighter approach to flavor. We have been told that it tastes exactly like our vanilla ice cream melted down! A glass of custard entails sweet sips of vanilla with a touch of turmeric for a surprise. If the spices of eggnog aren’t your thing, we highly suggest giving our old-fashioned custard a try.
