In a blender, pour in the condensed milk, regular milk and the eggs, Blend together and set aside. Preheat oven to 350 degrees For the caramel sauce: Pour the sugar in a saucepan on the stove and turn the heat to medium-low. The sugar will begin to melt and use a spatula to stir it. Make sure you tend to it, stirring constantly. The sugar will start to caramelize turning a light brown color when fully melted. The next step you need to work very quickly. Be sure to use a pot holder to avoid burning yourself, both the pan you are pouring from and the one you are pouring the caramel into will get VERY HOT. Be careful as you pour the caramel sauce and spread it around with the spatula, it hardens REALLY fast. You need to spread the sauce on the bottom of the pan and up the sides. I found it worked best if you start on the sides letting the sauce drip down into the middle and you quickly placed it along the sides. Give your custard another quick blend and then pour it into your pan, you want the custard to go up about 3/4 of the way up the pan. If you are using a flan pan than put on the top and latch it, if using a cake pan or ramekins cover them tightly with tin foil. Put your flan inside another baking dish and add water until it reaches half way up. Bake the flan for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Remove the flan and test it with a toothpick. You want the toothpick to come out clean, if not put it back in for another 10 or f15 minutes and test again. Leave the pan sealed and let it cook then refrigerate for a minimum of a couple hours to overnight. Remove the flan from the refrigerator and using a knife run it around the edge of the flan to loosen it. Use a plate where the lid or foil was and holding them tightly together flip the flan onto the plate. Your flan is ready to savor!

Place sugar in a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat, and cook, stirring constantly, until the sugar melts and turns a golden amber color, about 10 minutes. Watch carefully once syrup begins to change color, because it burns easily. Carefully pour the melted sugar syrup into a flan mold. Let cool. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Pour whole milk, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, egg yolks, orange juice, orange peel, vanilla extract, and cornstarch into a blender, and blend for a minute or so, until the mixture is smooth. Pour in the cream, and pulse several times to incorporate the cream. Pour the mixture over the cooled caramel syrup in the flan mold. Line a roasting pan with a damp kitchen towel. Place the flan mold on the towel, inside roasting pan, and place roasting pan on oven rack. Fill roasting pan with boiling water to reach halfway up the sides of the baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven until the center of the flan is set but still slightly jiggly when moved, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Let the flan cool, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
