Our ever popular Quince Jelly and Guava Jelly has just arrived in store from Zino’s Preserves, so make sure you come and get yours before they’re all gone! The guavas and quinces are all grown on site here at Alberton so they are truly homegrown.

The lemon syrup that is poured over these puddings just before you serve them gives it a delicious moistness and the fragrant citrus flavour is irresistible. It also works with oranges instead of lemons and you can replace the sour cream with yoghurt.

You can bake the puddings in advance but don’t make the sugar syrup until you wish to eat it. The pudding reheats well in the microwave for 2-3 minutes. I like to serve it with a dollop of sweetened cream or yoghurt and some poached fruit such as apples or pears.

Merry Christmas
