I've come across persimmon flans on other blogs too ... and I wish I had seen them when persimmons were actually in season here! You're right that they need to ripen a fair amount to really enjoy them. I do like the flavor though - have had them as is. But the flans (especially with the wonky eyes) look completely irresistible!

It's "boo-tiful" Deeba! :)

Yummy! I've recently discovered persimmons as well but haven't bothered to make anything with them yet - they're just so yummy on their own! This looks great and I adore the little eyeball. Creepy!

Mmm, looks absolutely delicious! How fun!

I love the pictures!
I have worked with persimmons once, I guess softer ones, but they had no real taste. I don't think soft fruit travels to Canada very well.
Your flan is gorgeous, and I love the eyeball!

You're right--they are drop dead gorgeous! I've never tried persimmons before, and I'm not sure if I'm up for the challenge, hehe. But they sure are a pretty fruit. But not nearly as pretty as your stunning flans!

So fun! Love all of the photos =D.

You're a star, Deeba. I could never pay this much attention to detail in my blogging.

Persimmons are a very Japanese fruit and my grandmother had one in our garden that bore fruit every fruit and we'd have carton boxes full of persimmons every year. :)

Here in belgium they don't celebrate halloween anyway not in a big way like in US, even though the last years shops ate full with halloween treats etc.....

2009-10-26T10:27:33.439+05:30

I like the autumn leaves with the creepy crawlies and the eyeball - perfect for Halloween. It's nice that the fruit seller wasn't really trying to trick you.

I've only had persimmons once. I find that turning it into a flan is a brilliant idea. Love how you did decorate it. Feels so Halloween now.

That's just boo-tiful Deeba! I played with eyeballs too but your version sounds so much tastier...love caramel custard things, and the addition of persimmon just clinches it. Great job!

What a wonderful twist on flan. I love both persimmons and flan, so I know I would go nuts for this dessert! I saw a spiced flan recipe recently and have been meaning to try it- you've inspired me to get going on it!
