Made for Zaar World Tour 8. I really enjoyed this dessert, particularly the pudding. I was unable to find any frozen or fresh cranberries so settled for 75% frozen raspberries / 25% dried cranberries and it was lovely. I would personally recommend halving the sauce as it is soooooo sweet and rich, but this could be a personal preferance. Thank you so much for sharing. -
I love sticky toffee pudding and this adaptation is delicious! This was the perfect dessert to use up some cranberries I had leftover. I did use fresh cranberries in place of frozen. I think the servings per recipe at 9 servings is spot on. Thanks for posting the recipe! -
This was pretty amazing - the cranberries really give a great counterpoint to the sweetness of the pudding and the sauce. I was amazed at how easy it was to make as well, especially the sauce (I normally burn sauces!). Only thing I'd say - I think this is more a serves 6 recipe, and three of us very nearly finished it all off in one sitting... -
Of course, any dessert with "sticky toffee" in the name will be a favorite of mine! The tartness of the cranberries compliments the sweetness of the toffee sauce. For the sauce, I cut the amount of butter to 1/2 cup and brown sugar to 1-1/2 cups, keeping the same amount of cream. It still made plenty of sauce.

Made this as directed, using a pure vanilla extract & was extremely pleased with the orange & berry combo! The pudding itself tastes great even without the toffee sauce, but with it, it's rerally top notch! Definitely a keeper of a recipe!

<p>I'm a brand new single mommy to my tiny perfect human, so thank you to everyone who takes the time to make and review my recipes - I try to send a zmail to each of you, but baby girl has a different idea.</p>
<p>I'm a good ol' prairie girl from Canada with one side of the family being Ukrainian/Slovakian and the other side is German/Russian. In other words, when we cook we take carbs, cover them in more carbs, fry'em and serve it smothered in onions and cream. <br />No pro chefs in my family, just grandmas and aunts and cousins and a mom that had me pinching perogies and stuffing strudel before I could form a complete sentence. <br />The most dreaded / laughed at phrase I say is, So last night, I invented this thing for supper... - I would probably publish more recipes if I actually remembered everything I put in or had an idea of how much I added!!</p>
