Lemon curd originated in the late 19th century in England and was traditionally served with bread or scones with afternoon tea. It's a classic flavour as a filling for cakes, tarts, and pastries. Nowadays, curds are also a popular topping for toast, waffles, pancakes, cheesecake, crumpets, and much more!

Incredible! Best (and easiest) vegan lemon curd we've ever tried. Could hardly tell the difference between this and a "traditional" non-vegan lemon curd 😍😍😍. Paired it with the lemon & raspberry muffins and it was to-die-for!!

Easy to make and so good! This brings back good memories to all the sunday morning toasts with Mark’s and Spencers lemon curd I loved to eat when I wasn’t eating vegan yet, and it tastes even better. Thank you! 🙏🏻

Soo yummy! I put this between layers of lemon cake and it was delicious, thank you!

I topped the olive oil cake with it. Amazing

I wanted to make this to use in a recipe but what I'll make needs the freezer. Can this curd be frozen or the consistency will be different once defrosted?

Hey Giulia, we imagine you could freeze the lemon curd in an airtight container but haven't tried it ourselves. Do let us know if you give it a try!
