I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pastry cream turned out curdled. I'm going to try again.

This pastry cream is a bit too thick. I think I would add a little more milk next time.

This pastry cream is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of pastry cream, but this one was really good. It was light and not too sweet. I would definitely make it again.
