Custard Tarts. 06:20 - Dec 17 with 476 viewsBenters

Every day for the last few weeks my Tesco Express in Benters hasn’t had any custard tarts in the store.

Yesterday we went shopping in a massive Tescos the same thing no custard tarts.

Is anyone else struggling to find them?

I guess it’s the mince pies fault.

You need to go to Portugal for a decent one buh. Pastel de Nata are much better than the rubbish English ones

2 things.

1) Both versions are great, no need for favouritism.

2) The Portuguese one is available in pretty much every supermarket or baker in the UK anyway.

I wasn't having a pop, just defending the good old british custard tart!

This is the problem with stuff written down, sometimes loses the lightness that may be intended in the words.

I'm definitely not looking for beef about cakes though.

Mmmmmm. Cakes.

On point (2), they all taste rubbish compared to the real thing rolling fresh out of the oven every 5 minutes in Portugal though.

When was the last time you had a custard tart ? I can’t find them loads of those ridiculous custard slices about though,I can’t be bothered with those.

Forget Tesco. Get yourself down to a local bakery!!

….I had a Saturday job in the bakery at Asda.

They used to make the custard tart mix the night before and leave it in the butchery fridge overnight.

After I’d left I found out that the butchers used to wee in the mix before it was poured into the pastry cases and baked.

True story.

Might be worth obfuscating the name of the large, potentially litigious establishment?
