| Annie finally got her act together last season and produced The Australian Bush Christmas Pudding in time for Christmas 2008.It was a huge success with everyone who enjoys pud but really feels the need to ‘lighten up’ this finale to the Christmas Feast. See her description of it below.
We are back at the Sydney Markets in September. See details of these below, noting the change of location at Northside Produce in particular. Come and say Hello, have a nibble, have a chat and take a look at the delicious, moderately-priced ideas we have for your Christmas gifts.

We love our Christmas Pud in Australia, but with the summer sun blazing and everyone already stuffed with good food, a dessert made heavy with suet or other animal fats just doesn’t sit right – on the tummy or the conscience.
The Australian Bush Christmas Pudding is a lighter style of steamed pudding; rich in fruit, macadamia nut, spices and brandy but with no suet, no breadcrumbs, no dairy, no added salt and no artificial flavours or colours. It is sold in the bowl in which it was made, which means less handling, better hygiene, recyclable packaging and greater convenience on a hot and busy day.
You just pop the pudding in its boil-proof bag into the steamer to heat it up. No foil caps or string or fiddly stuff required. You can also heat it by microwave or even eat it cold – but you wouldn’t want to miss out on the fun of setting it alight, would you? Instructions are on the bag.
The Australian Bush Christmas Pudding costs $28 and serves 6-8 people. |
