In Japan, custard pudding (called purin), is often seen as a nostalgic favorite of sweets enthusiasts, largely due to its prominence on the menus of old-fashioned cafes in the style of the Showa era. Made from whole egg yolks and often compared to Flan or creme caramel, Japanese pudding has been used in some interesting ways before, including in sandwiches and Chinese-style steamed buns.

Although many are content to enjoy 7-Eleven's surprisingly high quality pudding packets.

Those looking to whip up their own batch of Japanese pudding and eat it on a grand scale may want to check out sweets making YouTube channel Chez Sucre Sugar House. The channel recently released an easy-to-make giant pudding recipe with well over one million views that yields a huge but perfectly bouncy serving of pudding!

Many are praising the video for its soothing ASMR quality, as well as building up an appetite to craft their own perfectly silky and bouncy pudding at home!
