These custard cups are just what I wanted. They are lovely and work very well to make a great custard

I bought these for making custard cups. They work great. They go in the oven no problem and also wash nicely in the dishwasher. They are a perfect size for individual desserts.

These baked custard cups , in the classic ribbed design and size we all know and love from Grandma's day, also make delicious high and light popovers. But alas, the rims are about as thin as stoneware teacups, not the traditional thick-walled ones that resist breakage (as shown).

The porcelain custard cups in question are marginal at best. One cup was chipped on arrival and another chip was discovered recently. Now the set is down to four. I would not purchase these again!

I purchased these because I am on Weight Watchers and I'm being careful about what I eat. These are perfect for controlling my portions.

Prefer a flat bottom for creme brulee. This is tapered and rounded at bottom. If you like the shape, the product is good.

Eventually, I bought three sets of these custard cups. What I needed initially were prep bowls for an elaborate dinner, but I ended up liking these so well that I ordered enough for dessert service or other uses. They are actually perfect for sauces and dips served individually or for small servings of soups. I have found many ways to make them work in my kitchen.
