This is my absolutely favourite pudding of all time, I can remember eating it for the very first time at Osborne Road Junior School in Birmingham in 1965 and have loved it ever since. I love to serve and eat it hot with either custard, peppermint custard or fresh cream, or take a chance and not break a tooth and eat a portion cold.
