Sticky Toffee Pudding is a rich and comforting dessert you will love! These soft and sweet sponge cakes are soaked in a warm toffee sauce and served with whipped cream or ice cream. Choose from four different pan sizes: ramekins, muffin pan, square pan, or bundt pan!
This is the perfect dessert for holidays or celebrations. In fact, it is my all-time favorite holiday dessert – I make it every Christmas! Try it and you will see why.
What is sticky toffee pudding?
This is a classic British dessert made of soft and sweet date cakes soaked in a warm toffee sauce. The cakes are served with whipped cream, ice cream, heavy cream, or custard. This is a rich and comforting dessert that is perfect for fall, winter, and the holidays.
If you aren’t a fan of dates I still encourage you to try this. This cake doesn’t have a strong date flavor, the dates primarily add moisture and sweetness. After one bite of this dessert it easily became one of my favorite desserts of all-time. It is incredible.
