Flan is the classic Spanish dessert. A delicious, sweet and creamy custard, it provides a nice complement to a hearty Spanish meal, and continues to delight children and adults alike. Often, it is served with caramelized sugar which is melted on the bottom of a custard cup before the warm flan is added and cooled. To make it from scratch requires patience -- and lots of eggs! The packets provide a way to make delicious flan it in just a few minutes. Three boxes make 12 individual servings.
