As long as you keep walking you won't sink. Stand still and you will sink. Custard is a Newtonian liquid. They proved this on Brainiac Science Abuse.

There was an episode of 'Braniac' about this I think and the answer is yes, but only if the custard is particularly thick and you'd have to walk quite quickly.
On the downside if you're asking because you're planning on trying this and I'm wrong you could always eat your way out!

Yes, if the custard has enough cornflour in it. If u impact the custard enough, it becomes solid and it has been done on the show brainiac.

YEP!
Custard has a strange property, when 'POUNDED' or walked on etc etc it gets firmer, but the moment you stop, you sink!!

It really depends on where you do this... If you are in a special universe where this type of question has to do something with zoology then yes it just may work.

Don't fill it full of muesli.
You could be dragged under by a strong currant.

depends on how thick the custard is and if you're wearing snow shoes or not.
