Spectacular Pudding
30 Answers
I'm looking for a recipe for a pudding that looks spectacular. I know I can trawl through recipe books but I would sooner hear from somebody who has actually made it. Last year I made a spectacular looking pudding which was basically a chocolate swiss roll with lashings of cream and lots and lots of beautiful red berries. I seem to remember there was a liqueur in it too. All suggestions gratefully received and considered:-)

How proficient are you in the kitchen?
A delice au cassis is fab but if made properly technically challenging and time consuming.....not to mention the washing up.
For high impact low effort I could dig out a tiramisu bombe recipe.
What's the occasion, how many people, are you serving it at home or travelling with it, what do you like/dislike?

A summer berry meringue roulade surrounded with fresh berries.
I can't remember what it's called but you make a couple of swiss roll deep sponges cut them into thirds lengthwise, spread with cream and dot with fresh rasps. roll the strips into a mega swiss roll and then cover in a ganache. Decorate with fresh rose petals.

There will be 6 of us (it's an annual event) - all best of friends so any distaters can be laughed off!!! I've seen those croquembouche and wondered if I could do it. I'm always willing to have a go at anything! Rainbow meringues sound interesting, as does strawberry millefuille.
Thank you all for your replies. Vodkancoke, is croquembouche as simple as you say? Would it be possible to prepare it during the day to serve at about 8 pm. Would you mind writing out the recipe and instructions along with any tips. I'll do a practice one next week:-)
