A sensational spring pudding that’s as beautiful as it is delicious. Juicy ripe plums are chargrilled and flambeed with spiced rum, then topped with a generous dollop of Trewithen Cornish Clotted Cream. Finished with honeycomb, toasted almonds, coconut and edible spring flowers, this dessert is rustic, fragrant, and full of warm spice. It’s a dreamy combination of tart fruit, creamy indulgence, and a little fireside theatre.
