Title: Help ! Sticky fig and date pudding QFITT
Post by: chrissa on February 22, 2014, 04:55:14 am

I'm making this for guests tonight.

The pudding themselves are fine but the sauce just turns out to be a dark thin horribly sweet mess that looks burnt

I've made it twice, once with cooking cream and now with thickened cream.  It's inedible(http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/02/22/u9u7y3es.jpg)

Has anyone else had issues with this sauce.

I think I'll just make a custard instead

Forget the sauce and serve it with cream,  if you have any left ,  or custard.

Very disappointing. I'd follow Chookie's advice. Or even icecream.

Have you compared it to the sauce with the Sticky Date pudding in the EDC chrissa - that one works well.

I ended up making the brandy custard from QFITT but used frangelico

The puddings were lovely and very nice with the custard.

I let the sauce cool to see if it improved on sitting but it was still unusable,  very disappointing.

Judy, I have made that sauce from the EDC before and it was very nice.  I will make that next time.

I'm glad it worked out.
