Portuguese term or phrase: Manjar de côco
Minha dúvida aqui é a seguinte: Estou traduzindo um documento com 35000 palavras sobre produtos alimentícios. Na lista aparece o termo "Pudim de côco" que já foi traduzido(Coconut Pudding). E agora aparece "Manjar de Côco" e achei as seguintes traduções online para "Manjar": Pudding, Flan, etc. Mas eu acho que não seria "Coconut Pudding" pq "Pudim de coco" já foi mencionado e não acho que isso seria a mesma coisa. Pensei em "Custand" também. Preciso de uma tradução "precisa".

Obrigada!

Coconut blancmange
Explanation:
Veja no Google, há várias receitas. Todo "custard" propriamente dito é feito com gema de ovo. Um pudim branco engrossado com maizena ou gelatina é um blancmange, seja qual for o sabor ou calda.
