They are not fantastic in quality though. Actually, if you don't have vanilla pods, 1 tsp of real vanilla extract would do as well. Another alternative would be vanilla paste which is available at <a href="http://www.shermay.com./retail.htm" rel="nofollow">Shermay's Cooking School</a>.

I can't remember how much I paid for the ramekins. Ramekins are available from Bodum (Tangs & Takashimaya), Le Creuset (Tangs). Shermay's Cooking School (Jalan Merah Saga) and Sia Huat (Temple Street) also sell ramekins. Hope this helps! Hi Pansy, thank you!

Firstly, they need to be cold when you caramelize the tops. Secondly, if you caramelize them and don't consume them soon, the caramel will eventually become liquid.
