…we’ve got The Ultimate Plum Pudding - one of the finest Christmas puddings you can buy – endorsed by the BBC Good Food Magazine and by Chef magazine as being as good as the best home made and has won a food ‘Oscar’ – a gold award at the Great Taste Awards. The pudding is made by a small craft manufacturer in Cumbria. All the vine fruits are soaked overnight in lots of brandy and dry sherry. Fresh breadcrumbs and freshly grated carrot help give the pudding a lighter texture. Ingredients are top quality and much more varied than usual – almonds, walnuts, stem ginger, apricots, cherries as well as the best, juicily alcoholic, raisins and sultanas. We asked why there are no currants and were told – none of us like currants! It’s not steamed until it’s black, caramelised and bitter – it’s light, sweet and aromatic and you can taste every ingredient. Most people have no idea that Christmas pudding can be this good and lots of people enjoy it who ‘don’t like Christmas pudding’. The Ultimate Plum Pudding is not available in supermarkets. We have had the pudding labelled especially for us and to compliment the pudding we are selling a velvety textured Brandy Butter. Also available are a delicious range of sponge puddings: Triple Chocolate naturally made with Belgian Chocolate! Ginger Pudding loaded with small pieces of Buderim stem ginger. Citrus, Honey & Almond Pudding giving a taste of summer at Christmas time!
