If you’re a regular reader it’s likely that you know how much I love flans! As
I ‘ve mentioned before, flan is a popular dessert in Colombia and we have many variations of this delicious dessert.

I already have the following flans in my recipe list: traditional, coconut, coffee, pineapple, pear, guava and cheese, and chocolate flan. Today I am adding Mango Flan to this list.

My sister Catalina came to visit from Colombia about 3 weeks ago, so I have been really busy, but happy! Having my sister in my house means a lot to me and having her trying all of my dishes is wonderful.

She loves food as much as I do and we have so many memories associated with our family recipes and so much to share that we don’t stop talking for one second. Last week I asked her what kind of dessert she would like and she requested a flan. So I wanted to make one that I didn’t have yet on my blog and we decided that Mango Flan would be perfect and let me tell you, it was absolutely delicious!

I have a passion for fruit desserts but I don’t like to bake, as you may know. So, while at the supermarket the other day, I came across some beautiful pears, but had no idea what to make with them. Well, I bought them anyway and on the way home I decided to make a pear flan. I love to make flan not just because it is delicious, but because it is very easy to make. Here it is… another flan recipe Read more…

Flan de piña is another traditional Colombian flan. I tried to make it with fresh pineapple but the flan didn’t have the right consistency, it was too watery. So I used a can of pineapple chunks instead and the flan came out creamy and just right. I love flan and hope you enjoy this recipe too. Read more…
