Pandan Custard Cake

The other day I was at Maxim's Cake House and I was browsing through the cakes when I saw this:

A nicely packed pandan custard cake in a sandwich box and it just brought me some good old memories of my school days when Mummy would buy this cake, cut it into proportionate sizes to be fit into my little lunch box.
Those were the good old days; back then, I didn't really like nor detest this cake so that's why it was a once-in-a-while food-to-bring-to-school for me:)

Looking at it now on the display shelf; and with the tag RM2.50, I thought I'd give it a try (besides, I can share if I can't finish it:)

It's not like the ordinary pandan layer or custard cake; in fact the texture of the cake was so smooth and spongy while the custard was also almost silky smooth.
The whole experience of tasting the cake was really pleasant (besides nostalgic) before I could stop to ponder whether there's coconut milk in it (I have a case of lactose intolerance and coconut milk was one of the restricted items for me)

But, I must say, even if there is, it was really light and faint - pretty good job of making it an excellent and delightful cake for anytime of the day:)
