Silky vanilla flan, deep chocolate cake, and a caramel drip that’s never too sweet — the kind of bite that makes you close your eyes.

My story

Hi, I'm the baker behind Flanissimo.

“Four kids, a full house, and one recipe I never got tired of making.”

Flanissimo started as a way to unwind. With four kids and a full house, flan was the one thing in the kitchen that was just mine — I’d make a batch in the mornings, more for the process than anything else.

The chocoflan version came out of pure curiosity — what if the cake and the flan swapped places? — and once I got it right, it stopped being a kitchen experiment and started being the thing people actually asked me to make again.

I still make every one by hand, in my own kitchen, on the weekends. No mixes, no shortcuts — just the same recipe I’ve been perfecting since it was just something I did for fun.

The chocoflan

One cake, made right

Dense chocolate cake on the bottom, silky vanilla flan on top, and a caramel layer that forms between them as it bakes upside down. Every chocoflan is made by hand, from scratch — no mixes, no shortcuts.

Kind words

Loved at tables around Elgin

I ordered the family-size chocoflan for my mom's birthday and it disappeared before I got a second slice. That caramel layer is unreal.

Questions

Frequently asked

How far in advance do I need to order?

I ask for at least 48 hours' notice on most orders — a bit more around holidays and busy weekends. The earlier you reach out, the more likely I can lock in your exact date.

Where do I pick up my order?

Pickup is here in Elgin, TX. Once your order is confirmed, I'll send you the exact address and we'll settle on a time that works for you.

How long does the flan stay fresh?

Best enjoyed within about 5 days, kept refrigerated. It also freezes well if you want to save a slice for later.

Do you offer different sizes?

Right now I make one size — a 24" × 24" chocoflan — and don't offer smaller or custom sizing. If you need more than one for a bigger event, just let me know how many and I'll get them ready.

Do you take custom flavor requests?

Right now I only make one thing: classic chocoflan. Keeping it to one recipe is what lets me make it really well, rather than a little of everything.

What allergens are in your flan?

Every chocoflan contains eggs and dairy. I don't currently offer a version without them, so please keep that in mind if you're ordering for someone with allergies.

The chocoflan everyone ends up asking about — now one order away.
