Puddings When You Were Child. What Was Your Favourite?

Ask a Question

When I was younger my Mum used to make my sisters and I some really old school puddings that we all used to enjoy.

Some of my favourites were rice pudding with a lump of strawberry jam, really tangy lemon meringue pie and bread and butter pudding with really thick custard.

What were your favourites?

Caramel cake and custard was my favourite, now I'm a bit like Greg Wallace, my face lights up at the very mention of pudding.

Sticky toffee pudding, hot fudge sundae or cheesecake. I used to hate rice pudding as a child, but I love it now 😋

Banana and custard!! That’s all we ever got 😂 its mad to think that as a youngster I really truly believed it was a treat and loved it! As an adult I wouldn’t dream of smothering a banana in custard as a treat lmao

HannahSunderlan I recently served this up as a touch of nostalgia. You wouldn't believe how well it was received. 😂 It was one of those cornflakes moments - haven't had them in a long time and then realise just how good they tasted. (I said nostalgia but 'tween you and me the bananas were just about to go a little soft 😆 )

I never liked school lunches but always looked forward to the day Steam Pudding was on the dessert menu! [Yum, Yum]

Who remembers that vile dessert at school, the one which looked like Frog Spawn? [Urrgghhh]

'Tapioca' I believe and I've just read an article titled 'Official Frog Spawn is the most hated school meal of all time.'
