Can Jewish people eat frozen custard?

Answer 1

Obviously, for Jews who do not keep kosher, this is simply an issue of taste.

For Jews who do keep kosher, there is more of a discussion. There is no ingredient in "normal" sticky toffee pudding that is not kosher-dairy, i.e. dates, water, baking soda, kosher salt, flour, butter, brown sugar, vanilla extract, eggs, vanilla bean, and heavy cream. All of this is fine. However, as noted below, an item which is kosher-dairy cannot be eaten at the same meal as an item which is kosher-meat. There are different understandings of this phrase. The most stringent, as noted by Dan Galilee below is that there should be 6 hours between meat and dairy. Less stringent opinions hold that 2-3 hours should be sufficient. There is no authority that holds that a meat meal may be followed by a dairy dessert (too close in time), but there have been some customs to that effect that prevailed in some Jewish communities. Regardless, if you serve a kosher meat meal, do not serve sticky toffee pudding as a dessert.

Answer 2

Yes, if its ingredients are kosher and it was prepared in a kosher vessel (pot, pan, dish, etc.). If it contains dairy, then it should not be eaten within six hours after meat. Better to make it parve (without any meat or dairy ingredients).

Answer 3

yes. If bought, it should have kosher certification on the label.
