Which classic British pudding deserves the top spot on the dessert trolley?

Dense sponge soaked in rich toffee sauce, ideally served with a generous pour of custard or vanilla ice cream. A modern classic that rarely disappoints.

A steamed suet pudding studded with currants, traditionally drowned in hot custard. School dinner nostalgia in every spoonful.

Crushed meringue, whipped cream and fresh strawberries thrown together with glorious abandon. Summer in a bowl.

Buttery shortcrust pastry filled with a sticky golden syrup and breadcrumb mixture. Famously a favourite of a certain bespectacled wizard.

Layers of buttered bread, sultanas and a creamy custard baked until golden on top. Proof that simple ingredients can be utterly comforting.
