Step 1

In a small saucepot, combine milk, rind from lemon and orange, cloves, 3 cinnamon sticks, and nutmeg. Bring to a simmer. Reduce heat and cook for 30 minutes. Remove from heat and cool for 1 hour.

Step 2

While milk cools, in a large bowl, beat eggs and sweetened condensed milk until well combined. Stir in mandarine oranges, vanilla, and orange extract.

Step 3

Strain rind and seasonings from cooled milk. Gradually add milk to egg mixture, beating continuously to prevent curdling.

Step 4

Pour custard mixture into ramekins placed in a baking dish. Pour boiling water around ramekins to create a hot water bath.

Step 5

Bake at 325 degrees for 30-45 minutes, or until center begins to set. It will still jiggle slightly.

Step 6

While custard are baking, combine pinapple, flour, brown sugar, margarine, and cinnamon. Sprinkle even amounts over the top of each custard.

Step 7
