Award Winning Luxury Christmas Puddings
Sticky Toffee Pudding wins an award

…and gets a mention and recommendation from Xanthe Clay in The Saturday Telegraph Weekend section and is also featured live on Radio Solent's Foodie Friday with Katie Martin
Christine's Frangipane Tart – wins another award!
An attractive individual tart. The gluten free pastry is crisp,
and the balance of raspberry and almond is right. This is an impressive example of a gluten, wheat and dairy-free product.
and also Christine's Sticky Toffee Pudding wins an award
Both these products were entered into the main non gluten free categories, so it was great to see that they got awards for 'taste' rather than just being gluten free.
