About

A pudding fit for a King! This delicate, zesty dessert is inspired by King Charles III’s favourite pudding. Originally created by chef Enrico Derflingher on the Shetland Islands with a limited choice of ingredients at his disposal, the then Prince Charles liked it so much that he requested that it be served at all formal dinners at Kensington Palace.
