One of my favourite puddings made by my mum sixty odd years ago. My favourite fruit was black plums, don't see them around these days. I love Edmonds recipes, have my mothers books and have bought new ones.

My mum made this 66 years ago. She still makes this pudding. I used to rush home from school. Walking up the long drive way, on a farm. I could smell the Fiejoa pudding in the oven. Yummy. I make now. Our fav. I use Edmonds products all the time, the best. Thankyou
