Prepare the Corn Mixture
In a saucepan, combine the sweet corn kernels and heavy cream. Heat over medium heat until it just starts to simmer. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

Blend the Corn
Using an immersion blender or regular blender, blend the corn and cream mixture until smooth. Strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove any solids, pressing down to extract as much liquid as possible.

Mix the Custard
In a bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, egg yolks, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until well combined. Gradually mix in the strained corn mixture until fully incorporated.

Bake the Custards
Bake in the preheated oven for about 40-45 minutes, or until the custards are set but still slightly jiggle in the center. Remove from the water bath and let cool to room temperature.

Caramelize the Sugar
Once cooled, sprinkle an even layer of brown sugar on top of each custard. Using a kitchen torch, carefully caramelize the sugar until it forms a crispy top. Alternatively, you can place them under a broiler for a few minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.
