Brilliant Dan. More please you explain it so well. Thank you 👍

[@kimmurphy6864]

Yay I’m first

[@claireinglis889]

I’m happy your channels are becoming so successful, I love watching you banter with Stephanie on The Chateau Diaries, I like your dry humour. However, these videos are so clear and I love the camera work too. May I say I just wish there was a little more light.

[@marjoriepark1198]

Beautiful! Love the sugar technique. Might try it with a little blueberry compote side dressing . Thanks for the demo. Great camera work as well👍🌈Marjorie from Georgia US

[@jasminejustice1776]

[@angelapa9513]

So elegant

[@helenstella2666]

Hi Dan. I’m happy to watch this again! I remember having this many years ago in Paris:) So good to watch you cooking in your home-made kitchen 😊

[@LadyGreenEyes]

I love how easy you make everything look. Thank you so much for making these videos, I've been a subscriber of yours since you very first started your first channel. Your family is so lovely. Thanks again from Canada. 🙂

[@thefrenchkitchen6850]

Thank you so much!

[@cynthialambert9067]

My favourite dessert, and you took all the mystery out of it. Can't wait to try this.

[@leaagol8034]

i grew up eating this - my fav dessert as a kid

[@debbiedent1156]

Good luck Dan with this new channel. There is no end to your talents annilese is a very lucky women.! Think its a fab idea to keep this separate from your other one. I look forward to seeing more of these vlogs where do you find the time ha ha good luck guys xx

[@jasminejustice1776]

Do you know what happened to him? Does he have another channel or Instagram?

[@tracylyon-woerner8189]

Looks amazing and you make it seem something that anyone could do :)

[@kathleensmith8365]

Looks beautiful and delicious. Appreciate your instruction for the spun sugar and the chef secret for cleaning the pot!

[@WendyInCollingwood]

👏🌟👍 Spectacular

[@aleciaj8098]

Another great one I’m so impressed! Did you use vanilla sugar for everything or just the top detail? I’m assuming just the top. Anyway great video and I love the intro!

[@MommyToMyBoys]

Dan said he used vanilla sugar in the custard too, but I was wondering the same. Did the egg whites have the vanilla sugar as well?

[@cgzone8]

Outstanding! Thx for sharing. cgzone8

[@carwen8653]

What a delicious looking dessert!

[@1jmass]

This does look good. You mentioned using individual ramekins, but it looks so much more impressive in a group. How would you serve it to each person from a dish like you made? The meringue would be easy enough, but would you just spoon up the custard?

[@theceramicrepairstudio]

Hi Dan, did you use full fat milk?. Love the new channel.😃

[@thefrenchkitchen6850]

Full fat milk yes! Although semi and skimmed can still work just less creamy !

[@mariab1429]

Hello Dan. I will try this recipe later today. A question, how long did it take for the sugar to melt? I want to have my guest decorate the dessert himself so I need to time it well. Thanks!

[@MommyToMyBoys]

Fantastic! Dan, how far in advance can the sugar work be done? How would you store it?

[@thefrenchkitchen6850]

You could do it the day or so before hand, it needs to be kept absolutely dry no moisture or it will melt!

[@MommyToMyBoys]

@@thefrenchkitchen6850 Wonderful. Thank you!

[@angiesserendipity6189]

Fantastic! I'm looking forward to more cooking videos. My 50th birthday is this weekend and I'm cooking for a small gathering. I plan to have this for the desert.

[@marthaaguirre5343]

How far in advance can I do the merengue’s?

[@darlenesykes2009]

Seen this on your other channel but was wondering how much is the sugar ( in cups )

[@lmdyment]

Google the amount to convert it. He probably only knows millimetres and grams. He said give or take 100 grams.

[@lmdyment]

100 grams for meringue and 60 for custard.

[@juancarrera8397]
