This flan was a bit too sweet for my taste, but otherwise it was very good. I would recommend using less sugar next time.

This flan was a bit too firm for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I might have cooked it a bit too long.

The texture of this flan was a bit grainy, but the flavor was good. I think I might have overcooked it a bit.
