Solution

The incorrect word in the sentence is "custard." The correct term should be "dessert."

Here’s the revised version of the sentence with the correction:

"We watched the waiter take the small bowl of crème brûlée to our table and light the dessert on fire with a small torch."

In this context, "dessert" refers to the sweet course typically served at the end of a meal, while "custard" is a type of dish made with milk or cream and eggs that may be used in various recipes, but it doesn't fit appropriately here.
