Where did boston cream come from?

did they just come up with boston cream especially for donuts or was it already made.. and if so what do they use it for.. do they sell them in containers some where in like guatamala? and what would you put it on.. toast? and it surprisely tastes very similar to vanilla pudding so i wonder if they made boston cream for duntus and thought it was yummy sodecided to call it vanilla pudding or maybe it was the other way around and they had vanilla pudding and they decided to dip a donut in it.. i guess the real question is.. which came first vanilla pudding or boston cream?Where did boston cream come from?
Boston Cream is a classic pastry cream (creme patisserie), which is a rich, thick, vanilla flavored custard made from a mixture of milk, eggs, sugar, flour and cornstarch (a thickener) cooked on the stove. Its mild flavor and creamy texture pairs very well with the tastes and textures of both the sponge cake and chocolate glaze. It is more tasty and has a richer flavor than vanilla pudding.





In Boston a man named Harvey D. Parker opened a restaurant called the Parker House Restaurant. On the menu was a 'Parker House Chocolate Pie', the recipe to which was similar to the New York newspaper recipe except a chocolate glaze had replaced the powdered sugar topping. We are not sure how it was renamed to 'Boston Cream Pie', but Bo Friberg in his book 'The Professional Pastry Chef' thinks ';the name stems from the original title (in the New York paper) combined with the reference to Boston.';Where did boston cream come from?
