Top 3 puddings?

A neighbour has a plum tree that he encourages us to plunder as he doesn't like them and they attract wasps! so I make plum crumble in industrial amounts and freeze it.yum.

As many as you like - a whole sweet trolley full ... double hic Plum crumble, mmmmm ... haven't had that for years ...

Having ready chosen 3 puds, may I now choose another 3? I told you I liked puds ( could very likely choose about 50 given half a chance.)
plum crumble
Treacle tart
Sherry trifle.
Mmmmmmmn?????

Should have said these are the ones I make ... shouldn't have had that last wee glass of limoncello - bottom of a home-made bottle and rather potent methinks. Hic!

lujaha Mind you, mine never seems to turn out right!

Interesting that some people have drawn a distinction between favourites to eat and favourites to make.

My favourites - or more correctly , those that my family like to see reappearing for special occasions are:
profiteroles - like to experiment with toppings ,e.g. white choc or fudge
raspberry pavlova
chocolate and port trifle

Just made a huge apple crumble and no family coming to dinner after all today - shame ...

Forgot to put Anne 2108 .
Mont blanc is divine

My sister used to refer to her tarted skirt when we were small. I think it was tartan

OhImperfect27 you have made my day as I have been searching for a gypsy Tart recipe for many years. Yes I did go to school on the Kent and Sussex border !
Other favourites are Rick Stein's chocolate cake with Lidl vanilla icecream and raspberry Pav.

Oooh,love puddings when out for a meal-anything involving meringue is my favourite,also sticky toffee or syrup sponge pud and custard,apple pie with ice-cream.Very rarely make them at home though.It seems more of a treat to have one when out then!

Always go for STicky Toffee pudding when I am in English Pub or shopping at M&S. Love Pavlova and discovered the secret is English Double Cream - French cream is rubbish. also Baked Alaska.

ooooooooooo, after reading through the posts and all those lovely puds i can't choose my top three - or even my top ten!!

my mother in law used to ask me to make a gypsy tart - she lived in kent - but i was always unable to find the recipe. in the end i've had to ask a friend of mind who lives in chatham what the recipe is although i've yet to make it.

but you name a pud and i'll probably love it - even rice pudding!! and my creme brulee is to die for.

Blackcurrant cheesecake.
Eton mess.
Treacle sponge....
and about a hundred more...

Lemon tart and gipsy tart, yes was brought up in Kent. Can't get it in Yorkshire so have to make my own.

Really I would prefer 2 starters a pudding or vice versa when we eat out. They are always so much nicer than the mains .

Sticky Toffee
White chocolate Cheesecake
Chocolate Roulade

I always enjoy making the puddings far more than the rest of the meal- I always choose which one I will do first before I decide on the rest of the meal.

I enjoy cheesecakes, ice cream and strudels.
I always look at ingredients, too much sugar or salt and I don't buy it. And I am surprised by how much butter, sugar and fat are in magazine recipes.

Jaxie I posted the recipe link to gypsy tart - yes, not PC name anymore!

Home made - the ones we have most regularly are: -
Chocolate fudge pudding + custard/yoghurt/ice cream
Good pud [lemon syrup steamed pudding] + loads of custard
and probably
"mincepie tart" - a large mince tart, again with ice cream, custard or plain yog.

Most things in any restaurant.

Gypsy tart - far too sweet. Can't bear it! and yes, we live in Kent...

I like puds, especially lovely creamy rice with cinnamon and dried fruits, which I keep intending to make, since son has never tasted it. We normally only have desserts once a week when MIL comes over for the weekly get-together (one week she cooks, the next we do). I have fruit or a yoghurt most evenings, but none of us is particularly sweet-toothed, but this particular tradition has somehow come into being. I couldn't really come up with a list of favourites, but for a change do enjoy a pud!

My three favourites are
Creme Brûlée, just the plain simple kind - a test of a good chef
Pannacotta, with just the right amount of wobble, see above
Salted Caramel anything!

I'm more a savoury person than a pudding person, but I do enjoy:
Steamed treacle sponge;
Chocolate mousse with a large blob of cream;
Pineapple upside down cake.

What is gypsy pudding? To be PC would have to be called Traveller's pudding today, surely?

My favourites to make for family and friends are trifle,apple crumble and bread and butter puddings.I add nuts,chocolate,spices and always a dash of something alcoholic!

Don't know where the d came from, but I'm sure a tarted au citron tastes as good as a tarte!

Anything lemony - mousse, tarted au citron, Delia Smith's lemon & lime freezer cake.
Hazelnut meringue, filled with cream & raspberries
Pancakes with maple syrup

Definitely a pudding lover,
Creme brulee
Sticky toffee
Pavlova
Mmmmm
