Sweet idea

Away from home, one establishment has also turned its pudding trade into a lure for international travellers. Britain’s Three Ways House Hotel hosts a Pudding Club, which meets every Friday night with the sole purpose of devouring the sticky British desserts. It’s located in the English Cotswold village of Mickleton in the heart of Shakespeare Country. Founded in 1985, the club has more than 1000 members all around the world, from Italy to Indonesia. (Though, of course, they don’t all turn up on the same night!) The blackboard list of puddings ranges from old favourites, like syrup sponge and summer pudding, to the more curious items, like Eton Mess and Passionfruit Charlotte.

The rooms even have dessert-inspired themes, including the Sticky Toffee Room, the Chocolate Suite and the Oriental Ginger Syrup Sponge Room. Yum. There are rules though, including you may eat only one pudding at a time. Thankfully, the number of puddings you try in one night is not limited!
