Christine sent me a request for sources where to get more interesting ramekins or custard cups. The world of ramekins is still pretty traditional. But I dug a few options for you.
Mayfair & Jackson
The Pretty Petals ramekins are my favorite for a baby or a bridal shower. The soothing sage green, butter yellow, and cloud blue are always in style.
If you are looking for a more streamline design, go with the basic 4-piece ramekin set. The sets are available in blue and in white.
Trois Femmes et un coussin
The restaurants and hotels dinnerware shop Trois Femmes et un cousin sells a divine white model. The Montreal showroom is open to the public but I do not know the price.
Le Creuset
Before you buy a ramekin set check the size you need for your recipe. Le Creuset sells their ramekins in two sizes: 7 3/4 ounces and 4 3/4 ounces. The vibrant red enhances the look of most dessert. The more daring can opt for a funkier kiwi set.
Le Creuset produces a heart shape ramekins that you can use for a bridal shower and at Valentine’s Day.
