quiche is strictly speaking an egg and cheese tart. Flan is usally sweet

[Sylday]

In Britain, both flans and quiches have pastry cases; but the former usually have a sweet filling, and the latter savoury. (Also, a flan often has a criss-cross of pastry strips on top.) However, on the Continent - especially Spain where it is a very popular desert - flan (plural: flanes) is a creme caramel, without any pastry.

A flan is baked with the filling inside and a quiche has a prebaked pastry shell.

[Kay]

A flan is sponge and a quiche is pastry.
