Lewis and Cooper Hand Made Traditional Plum Pudding 220g

Purchased: Gift 2008 (I think)
Best Before: Mar 2011
Cooked: Steamed
Lit up: No
Cream or Custard: Cream
Packaging: Simply wrapped in baking paper and then with a green plastic wrap - Gold sticker telling me it got an award for great taste in 2007.
Appearance: This is a lighter coloured pudding than your average. There is the odd nut (almond?) visible.
Texture: Lovely and soft. Pretty similar to the Tiptree pud reviewed at the same time.
Taste: Another lovely pudding. What a treat to have two at once! Lighter coloured puddings can often have bizarre flavours (Carved Angel springs to mind), but this is one of the best. Fruity is the order of the day and a lovely lasting flavour. However, in comparison to the Tiptree I think it is just about beaten by a whisker.

Score: 7/10
