Looking forward to a meal out tonight with in laws. We are being taken to an Italian restaurant and as /i am a 'pudding person' I am very much looking forward to coffee gelato for dessert. Tomorrow we have family over and I will make a salted caramel sauce to drizzle over stewed apple and vanilla ice cream.
All this excess got me thinking about my favourite puddings ... could I even begin to choose a top three ? Well rather like choosing fav films - these would have to be the three in the frame just for now ... and in no particular order ...
white chocolate cheesecake with a berry coulis
apple pithivier with salted caramel sauce and cream
the aforementioned coffee gelato.
Are you a pudding person and if so what would you like to see on a menu? 
Or even Creme brûlée. Not taking up crime just yet.
I am positively drooling! I adore puddings but these days have to exercise self control or I'd be the size of a house
Well I have some lovely clothes in size 14 and I want to carry on wearing them.
I could eat any/all of the puddings mentioned. Never heard of gypsy tart -being brought up in the poverty stricken Potteries puddings were a luxury. Only really had them with school dinners which were lovely
having said that we're having a gang of friends round tomorrow, everyone providing something so I'll do a (bought) sponge flan with Creme patissiere and glazed fresh fruit with cream/ice cream to complement a fruit crumble someone else is bringing with custard.
