If I had to choose between cupcakes and sticky toffee pudding, I think my head would explode. They are both super sweet, rich... oh, I'm drooling just thinking about it.I went through a phase in the winter where I had to have sticky toffee pudding every night after dinner (you can imagine how that went over with my waist-line). Still, nothing could stop me tucking into the warm, spongy, gingery cake topped with a delicious runny toffee syrup (yes, I know I've overloaded the adjectives, but it simply must be done).
My all-time favourite brand, after many taste tests, is Farmhouse Fare. No icky sultanas, just pure sugary goodness. Put on a splodge of cream and you're good to go.
My weakness over the winter was cream cheese danish and I would splash raspberry jam all over it.
ReplyDelete(The raspberry danish just wasn't raspberry enough + no cheese.)
I hear you on the waistline.
"Moist, buttery date sponge drenched with our hand-stirred sticky toffee sauce"
ReplyDeleteI want Helen Colley to adopt me!

I'm hungry! I'll let Madame Rosemary Conley take care of my waistline..!
LOL!

They are both delicious!!! I am addicted to monkey bread at this point and I am obsessed with cinnamon rolls, those are my weaknesses!
ReplyDeleteIt does look good! I always need to have at least one dessert per day. I'll have to try it :)
ReplyDeleteDrool. That's it. Just...drool.
ReplyDeleteOh, that does sound good. :) And it looks even better.
ReplyDeleteNow I'm starving! Cream-cheese danishes with raspberry jam, cinnamon rolls... that's it. I must go buy some sticky toffee pudding for dessert right now. waistline be damned.
ReplyDeleteJen - what's monkey bread?
I think it's a good think I've never heard of sticky toffee pudding - sounds addictive!!
ReplyDeleteOh, man! My mouth is watering! I'm a baked goods fiend. Thanks for the link.
ReplyDeleteStop Stop!!!!
ReplyDeleteNow I have to get dressed and get to the bakery! In a hurry...
I've never even heard of sticky toffee pudding but it sounds delicious! And some things just call for extra adjectives, don't they?
ReplyDeleteThere's a time and a place for overloaded adjectives ... All rules are meant to be broken at some point, after all. This post perfectly justifies that :)
ReplyDeleteI've lived in England for 17 years and I've never tried sticky toffee pudding
ReplyDeleteOh I'm drooling now, thank god I can't get to the shops now.
ReplyDeleteYou are making me hungry.... yum!
ReplyDeleteMy dear, nothing beats homemade. I'll send you my recipe if you like :)
ReplyDeleteI'm sure home-made is best. If only I could cook! :)
