When things are heated they are receiving energy, which causes the particles within the substance (in this case, custard) to want to increase their velocity (aka speed) the problem with this is that they will keep bumping into other particles which also have high velocity, keeping the overall object generally stationary. On the atomic level (very small scale) all the particles are vibrating at a magnitude equivelent to the energy they have gained. Also the chemicals within the custard may gain enough energy to break their inter-molecular forces (aka Van der Waals' forces) which hold molecules within the custard together. If heated high enough the atoms may gain enough energy to overcome the bond energy holding them together in the form of molecules... If these break the custard will boil off into the atmosphere.
