Thank you! Really appreciate you taking the time to write this, I’m glad you liked the video 🙏

This is relaxing & delicious!

I tried this recipe and it's HEAVENLY. I just loved it. It's the best tasting and the best texture wise of all pastry creams. I used it as a filling for a Karpatka (which traditionally calls for a butter based cream which I really dislike). It came out perfect. My previous attempt with diplomat cream failed because it was missing the gelatine which is a crucial step. Thank you for a great video!

Omg this looks amazing! But its hard to fine gelatine here. Does this works well with agar-agar powder? If it does, how much should i put in?

Well yummmmmmm 🤪

how much powdered gelatine to substitute the leaf gelatine

Hello, can I add bananas to the milk at the beginning to make a banana based custard? Also, if I only want half the amount (for small batch 6 pastry fillings), is it ok to half all of the ingredients?

This looks delicious 😋 It can be used for cover a cake ?

Yes you can! It will be kinda the same as covering with whipped cream in terms of keeping it refrigerated but it is a bit sturdier than that, not as sturdy as buttercream though :)

Hello! I’ve been trying to find a pipeable creme diplomat and I found your video. I do want to ask, for gelatin, if I was to use powder form, how many ml of water should I mix with a tsp of gelatin to mix into the custard? I don’t have gelatin sheet where I am. Thank you!

Hi there! I would recommend for every tsp of gelatine powder use 2 Tbsp of cold water and that should work if you let it sit for about 8 mins before incorporating to the warm custard Good luck!

I guess it refers to a jello-like consistency, something that will set that much so I wouldn’t follow that recommendation just because we aren’t making jello 🙂

Hi Nicky! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe and your tips to go along with it. If I wanted to make a Chocolate version, how much Chocolate in grams do I have to add in? Thanks in advance!

@BakingNicky

I’ll add this to my list of things to try It’s hard to just add chocolate since it is a solid and that means when the cream cools then it will be stiffer than the normal version I’ll get back to you on this one 🙏😊

Yes you can! you can use the same weight as the leaves and add a bit of water to that, about 15g of water to be exact. Thanks for watching!

Great stuff! Is there an alternative to gelatin? Thanks.

Great question, when I was testing the recipe I realised how important the role of gelatine is, otherwise its more of thick sauce than something pipeable. Now, you can do two things 1) omit the gelatine but heavily reduce the extra liquid (in this case the whipped cream) so that the texture is not too runny or 2) use agar agar, which should work exactly like the gelatine does I think one could try to find other thickener options like xanthan gum or some crazy stuff like that :)
