Aunty's Spotted Dick 2 x 95g

A few things for my Fellow Americans to understand about Spotted Dick (It's the name of the food, Amazon, please be understanding here). First off, the name has ties to an ancient term for dough which was pronounced "Dik." Has nothing to do with anatomy.Second, to the British, a pudding is not exclusively the soft and creamy custard-like dessert. It can also apply to small cake-like desserts, including this one. Think of that old Christmas Carol "We Wish You A Merry Christmas" and when the song references "Figgie Pudding." This is the kind of "pudding" it refers to in the song (not the exact same pudding but it is the same definition of "pudding").Now, SD is, essentially a small ball shaped cake with raisins. It's a nice little sweet treat and in this particular case is easy to prepare. Follow the instructions, nuke it in the microwave, plop it onto a plate, let it cool a little bit, and then enjoy. Quite nice as a gateway experience for British desserts. I imagine a properly made pudding though, boiled in a bag, will taste much better by comparison, but this microwaved pre-prepared version is an excellent starting point.

Very nice taste. Have tried Strawberry, Sticky Toffee, and Spotted Dick. They were all great! I know that last name makes grown folks giggle like middle schoolers but it was really pretty good. Enjoy.

When microwaved for thirty seconds, the pudding pops out of the plastic container. It has perfect texture. Served it with Devon Custard. Delicious. Hope to find a restaurant that makes it fresh.

Bought it because I could not believe the name, use it as conversation piece.

Not much flavor

Bought for my daughter who went through a British food phase. Had to pick this up for the giggles. She said it was pretty good. Definitely worth the money

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I saw the REAL version made in a video and it looked good, and probably was. But this was not good, it tastes like and has the texture of a cheap store bought Holliday fruit cake. No thanks!

I've purchased this before from World Market and enjoyed it very much. This is no different. I think it's one of the best tasting puddings I have eaten. It's very moist with a slight taste of something akin to molasses. Quite enjoyable.
