Tinned Puddings

The best.

Advantages: everything
Disadvantages: none

...there is a range of Ambrosia dessert custard, you can get it in the tin, the bigger carton, little pots, some with strawberry jam, little crumble pots with custard next to it- the list goes on! The price: It costs around 50p, costing up to £1 depending where you get it from, I normally buy from Asda or Tescos where it is normally about 50p, but sometimes I pop into independent news agents and there prices can go from a £1 upwards!! My view: I ...
...is no other option. When you first open the tin you are met by this 'thick' gloopy substance, which you sort of have to spoon out to get it all in the bowl. Within 5 or som minutes, it will start to be a lot 'thinner', yet stilly creamy and should be piping hot! I love to have it on hot puddings, crumbles or pies, but sometimes I just eat alone, but once you first taste it, there is nothing else that tastes remotley like it or has the same flavour. ...

Heinz Treacle sponge for me please!

Advantages: A delicious sweet pudding
Disadvantages: High in sugar

...or three hours! So Heinz have worked wonders by canning a steamed pudding that can go from tin to pudding bowl in under four minutes. A 320 g tin of Heinz Treacle pudding costs £1.09, Call it gluttony but I split the can between the two of us, in my opinion the can gives two ample servings. To microwave the pudding take a can opener and open the end of the can which is clearly marked `Open this end first`. Take a knife and run it around the inside ...
...rich the pudding is. Heinz have made sure that the sponge is featherlight, so far from being a heap of stodgy pudding we have an air filled light sponge that is coated in treacle which has sunk into the crust of the dessert and creates a golden layer. The syrup sauce is a little bit thicker and darker in colour and sits on top of the soft sweet treacle coating. Yes, you could serve the Treacle sponge pudding with ice cream for a change but my first ...
