1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees (around 180ºC).
2. In a small frying pan, heat the sugar at medium heat until it starts to melt and brown. Stir the sugar periodically so it doesn't burn, and to incorporate all of the sugar crystals into the melted sugar. You can add a splash of water, as called for in most flan recipes, but I haven't found it to really help the process. I find it just ends up making it take longer because it doesn't really start to melt until all of the water has evaporated anyway.
3. At first, the sugar will turn into a light brown liquid. Let it cook for a little while longer until it gets to be a medium brown color. Immediately (and carefully! melted sugar burns!) pour the melted sugar into the bottom of your pan or custard cups, moving the pan in circular movements to try to coat the entire bottom of the pan.
4. In a saucepan heat the milk, cream, coconut milk, and honey over low to medium heat, mixing continuously until the honey is completely incorporated into the milks. I don't like things to be too sweet so I don't use much honey. If you don't have honey or don't want to use it, you could use around a half cup of sugar instead. (Add more than that if you like things on the sweeter side.)
