Sticky Toffee Pudding / Sticky Date Pudding

July 24, 2012 by Maureen 27 Comments

This dessert is a very popular dessert and would be in the top 3 on any restaurant. It is made in the states too and it’s also called Sticky Toffee Pudding but the English word pudding means dessert and not the custard many Americans know as pudding.

When my son visited a few years ago, I asked if he would like some sticky date pudding for dessert. The worst thing in his mind was pudding with dates in it and he said, “No thanks, Mom, I’ll have some cheese and crackers.” I made the dessert and after dinner I brought them out, covered in delicious sauce. Alan looked at it and took a bite of his wife’s dessert.

“Uh, Mom, did you make another one? I think this is delicious,” he said. I knew. He ate his and finished his wife’s dessert. It is really really good.
