Custard (liquid, ready made)

Custard is a creamy dessert or sauce made from eggs, milk or cream, and sugar, thickened gently with heat, ranging from a pourable sauce to a set, spoonable pudding. It is served on its own, used as a filling for pastries and pies, or poured over cakes and desserts. Its thickness depends on the ratio of eggs to liquid and how long it is cooked.

As a free-flowing liquid, this ingredient fills a measuring cup with no trapped air pockets, so its weight is close to a straightforward density calculation.
