Pudding Cake

A pudding cake is a delightful dessert that weds the richness of a classic cake to the luscious, creamy consistency of pudding. Perfect as a decadent ending to a lavish meal, or a comforting favourite for weekend gatherings, this hybrid dessert category offers a textural joyride on each spoonful while balancing the sweetness appropriately. Uniquely, pudding cakes magically separate into two distinct layers during baking. An airy, sponge-like cake forms on top, while a saucy pudding-like layer develops on the bottom. Its dual texture and delicious taste make it a crowd-pleasing wonder, great for impressing your guests with a simple, yet extraordinary homemade dessert.

Expiration & Storage Tips
When does Pudding Cake expire?
As a dessert made with fresh ingredients, a pudding cake should be enjoyed in its best condition. When stored in a refrigerator, an unopened store-bought pudding cake can maintain its freshness for 5-7 days past the printed date. Once opened, it is recommended to consume it within 2-4 days to ensure both its taste and food safety. If you couldn't finish it on time, don't worry, you can freeze it to make it last for up to 2-3 months.
How do you tell if Pudding Cake is bad?
There are quite clear signs if a pudding cake has gone bad. Usually, a bad smell is the first sign. A fresh pudding cake should smell sweet and appetizing, if there is a musty, sour, or foul odor, avoid eating it. You might also see molding or discoloration. While a light crust is normal after refrigeration, any noticeable changes in color or texture might mean it's time to toss it.
Tips for storing Pudding Cake to extend shelf life
• Always store your pudding cake in a refrigerator. Room temperature can accelerate its spoilage. • Use a well-sealed container when you keep leftovers to avoid it drying out or taking on other flavors in the fridge. • If you decide to freeze it, portion it in suitable pieces and cover it in cling film or put it in an airtight container. This prevents freezer burn and makes it easier to thaw only the amount you need. • When defrosting, leave it in the refrigerator overnight, rather than at room temperature, to avoid bacterial growth.
