Thanks to both for these amazing old-school dinner recipes, we followed each of them and made them too. Our lads who are in their twenties now can't believe they were this good. Do any of you remember the butterscotch tart they used to have. A big thanks to you both again for sharing your memories, too. Mike jones, Abergele, North Wales

Jam Coconut Sponge with Pink Custard All in one bowl: 6 oz sugar, 6 oz self-rising flour, 6 oz butter or margarine, 3 eggs, 3.5 oz dessicated coconut, 1.5 tsp vanilla "essence" Pour into a greased and floured 10" x 8" tin (American= jelly roll pan) and bake at 160 degrees C for 20 to 25 minutes till done. Turn out the "sponge" (cake) when cool, spread with jam and sprinkle with coconut. Cut into pieces and serve with "pink custard." Pink custard is apparently "Raspberry Blancmange," which Sharon and Martin made from a mix from the company "Pearce Duff." I certainly don't remember anything like this at American, Dutch or Canadian public school. In America, if we were lucky, we got a 4 oz cardboard container of ice cream with or school lunch.

Hi, I really like your youtube and loved watching you make jam and coconut cake with pink custard. I wanted to know what the yellow custard was in the 70s as it was really nice. I have tried many of the packet brands in the supermarkets but cannot find one that tastes the same as the custard we had at school. There is nothing on the internet about yellow school custard & I wondered if you knew?
