Mine would have to be trifle. I literally cannot get enough of the stuff!

Eton mess.

Chocolate fudge cake with cream.

ScrubTheDecks · 21/05/2018 23:30

Maybe a proper homemade steamed ginger pudding, generous with the chopped stem ginger and sauce, and served with a creme anglais (proper) custard and good ice cream.

Zoflorabore · 21/05/2018 23:30

I replied then read the thread and there are only 2 others who have said the same as me! Jam roly poly and custard is the food of gods... is this a bad time to say I've never tasted Eton Mess? and I'm 40 oops

I’m shocked no one else has chosen ile flottant with a sprinkling of toasted almonds and a little caramel. It’s not too sweet and tastes light. Creme angliase is much nicer than custard.

I like wagamamas white chocolate and ginger cheesecake but it’s very sweet so I think I might get sick of it after a few days.

Cherry pie with either vanilla ice cream or custard.

Frosty66612 · 22/05/2018 07:40

@zoflora you definitely need to give Eton mess a try, it’s so good! I’ve never tried jam roly poly (shameful I know) so i’ll need to give that a go soon

Hot Sticky toffee pudding with ice cream.
Nothing else comes close to my love for this.

AuntFidgetWonkhamStrongNajork · 22/05/2018 11:24

I once had a chocolate orange truffle cheesecake that was perfect. Just perfect. I'd have that with a dollop of extra thick cream.

Frosty66612 · 22/05/2018 11:35

@auntfidget that sounds amazing! Love the chocolate orange combo

And the truffle - made it extra specially nice. And it was in Zizzi's of all places, on the special board.

Frosty66612 · 22/05/2018 14:58

@auntfidget Zizzi’s do great desserts. Other chain restaurants are often pretty poor when it comes to desserts which is a shame (had a cheesecake at Pizza Express once and it was crap)

There should be a tapas equivalent for dessert. Like, lots of mini desserts and you get to share and taste them all Halo

There’s a pub near me that does that.

Chesntoots · 22/05/2018 21:33

Eton mess.

This thread is the most thinking I've done in months.....

Petitepamplemousse · 23/05/2018 23:07

@Frosty66612 agreed, not madly keen on Zizzi but the desserts are yum.

Freyanna · 23/05/2018 23:18
