It slipped past me :( It worked alright when I did it, but I'd suggest tempering the yolks first. Pour some milk into the yolks, whisk, and finally add the whole thing back into the milk mixture.

My pastry cream did not however. In the recipe it says to pour the egg yolks into the milk slowly, but I think in doing that it cooked the eggs immediately. Next time I'll do the opposite, poor the milk slowly into the eggs. Did I miss a step or do you have any suggestions so this doesn't happen again?

I left the last segment with my mum, and got a message from her an hour later saying it was the best cake she'd ever had, and that my stepdad didn't even want to eat his peice, because then it would be gone, and he might plunge into a depression. I had no troubles at all with the pastry cream, which was like the most delicious custard ever, and made sponge from my grandma's recipe, all of it with duck eggs. It was so fabulous, thank you so much for your blog!
