- Reviewed in Canada on April 4, 2025Verified PurchaseThis stuff is fantastic as a Belgian waffle topping w fruit. Fantastic on its own with fresh fruit...now I'm dating myself...it's fantastic for a trifle.
- Reviewed in Canada on December 23, 2021Verified PurchaseI could not find this product in the stores this year to make my English trifle but happy to find it on 鶹
- Reviewed in Canada on December 28, 2020Verified PurchaseThis custard powder works. It is a pretty good substitute for Horne's custard powder. Horne's is superior flavour wise though. Bird's is more sugary and lacks the lovely homey taste of Horne's. Bird's is more expensive on 鶹 than at Wal-Mart ($4.67 for 340g can). I use this custard powder for the filling in Nanaimo bars. I don't cook the Nanaimo filling though; I just mix it by hand until it thickens. It takes awhile. My filling doesn't follow the recipe on the can of Bird's.
From the time I received this item, there was 16 months before the best before date expired. I wrote on top of the can the day I opened it.
The pictures I submitted were taken 3 months after I opened the can. I had made 2-3 batches of Nanaimo bars already with this can.

More pricey than at Wal-Mart.

5.0 out of 5 stars Delicious sauce .... no eggs!
Verified PurchaseThis product is fantastic. You get a lovely custardy sauce without using a single egg. Prefect over pies, cake, bread pudding. My lovely neighbor, a 90+ British lady recommended Bird's which apparently an English staple. I always have a box in my cabinet now.
