Should we mix water and custard powder before turning on the stove?

YEs always mix well and make sure mixture is lump free then cook halwa

Can I reduce sugar?

Yes, adjust according to your taste. We have sweet tooth so I refer to adding extra sugar.

Can I skip Food color?

Yes, a few years back I gave Guestpost to ãhãram Aruna's blog In that custard powder halwa, I used brown sugar and a pinch of saffron, skipped food color. Here is that version of Custard powder halwa without food color.

Can I cut the halwa immediately?

Always cool the halwa completely then cut the halwa. Grease and use a knife for cutting halwa.

Should I roast cashew?

Roasting cashew is optional for halwa. You can saute cashews in ghee or add it directly.
