Buy Bird’s Custard Powder - 300g in Canada
Bird’s Custard Powder - 300g is the classic British custard cupboard staple, ready to turn milk and sugar into proper custard without getting the eggs involved.
This is custard powder in the old familiar sense: mix it into a smooth paste, heat it with milk, and end up with the sort of yellow custard that knows exactly what apple crumble is expecting.
It is suitable for vegetarians and made with no artificial colours, which is useful information, though admittedly not the main reason anyone reaches for Bird’s. That reason is usually pudding.
The Great British Shop keeps Bird’s Custard Powder - 300g available in Canada for customers looking for authentic British food in Canada. Imported from the UK, this is the genuine UK version and easy to order online in Canada when British pantry staples are what you actually meant to buy.

Additional Information
Packaging Accuracy
We always do our best to keep product information as accurate and up to date as possible. From time to time, manufacturers change packaging, ingredients, nutritional information, allergen advice, pack sizes, or branding without much notice. Because of that, the product you receive may look slightly different from the images shown online.
If anything important changes, we update our listings as quickly as we can. If you have a question about ingredients, allergens, or a specific product before ordering, please get in touch and we will gladly check it for you.
Transparent Online Pricing
We believe in being upfront about pricing. Some products are priced higher online than they are in-store, especially heavier items, fragile goods, or products that are more expensive to pack and ship safely across Canada.
That difference is not there to catch anyone out. It reflects the real cost of getting British food to customers properly, whether you are ordering from Toronto, Halifax, Dartmouth, Ottawa, Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver, Mississauga, Montréal, Victoria, Winnipeg, Windsor, Bedford, Saint John, Charlottetown, Kitchener, Carleton Place, London, Burlington, Etobicoke, or somewhere smaller in between.
We would rather be transparent about that than hide the reality in vague terms. Proper service, careful packing, and honest pricing matter to us, and we would rather explain the cost clearly than build it into the experience in a way that feels misleading.
Weather, Melting & Freezing Risk
Some products carry a higher risk during transit in extreme weather. In warmer months, chocolate and other heat-sensitive items may soften or melt. In colder months, drinks and certain products may freeze, leak, or become damaged in transit.
We do what we reasonably can to reduce that risk. Liquids are packed in sealed protective bags to help protect the rest of your order if a bottle leaks or bursts. During summer, we may add ice packs to chocolate orders or take extra packing precautions where possible. Even so, there is no way to fully guarantee that heat-sensitive or cold-sensitive products will arrive unaffected during extreme weather.
We are clear about that because we would rather be honest than make promises we cannot always control. Your trust matters to us, and we try to be transparent about how we price, pack, and ship every order.
