Frozen Christmas Pud

[kloofnek]

I had a christmas order from Asda sent to my daughter`s this morning as she has more freezer space,amongst the order was a Xmas pud"Asda Extra Special Mulled Port, Cherry & Orange Pudding"...she went froze it!!!!!!!..too late to take it out now as the order was delivered first thing this morning.
Will it be ok????

Whilst I do not know I suspect it should be.

Probably the best thing would be to send me it and I'll check how good it is, whilst you could order another one for your daughter ?

Mmmm save some for me. My mum used to buy christmas pud half price after christmas and then freeze it till the following year, and we all survived! It might give you storage instructions on the box. I am sure it will be just fine.

Practically anything will freeze, so unless it says on the packaging "do not freeze" no harm will come to it. In fact, I believe the only thing that will definitely not freeze is lettuce.

Thank you all,I knew if it had been cooked,it would have been ok...but as it isn`t ,that is what worried me.

Let you know how it is ,after Xmas.

kloof, it has been cooked. Its not raw pudding batter you get but a steamed pudding, it only need heating to serve, not cooking.

cucumber doesn't freeze either, not does marrow

well they do but they are disgusting when you thaw them.

My mother used to make batches of 4-5 Christmas puds at a time then seal them with greaseproof paper and bees wax mum always said the longer they were stored the better they tasted.
