What does malva pudding taste like?
It is a sweet soft sponge cake like pudding of South African origin, that tastes a lot like caramel, flavored with apricot jam. Has a sauce to top it with when warm. Most prefer to make custard to eat it with.
Is there a substitute for apricot jam?
Good substitutes for apricot jam is apple jam, strawberry, fig or raspberry jams. If the apricot flavor is not important to give the pudding or cake that apricot flavor. But the fruit jams can replace the stickiness and sweetness needed for your recipes.
Why is my pudding soggy?
If you have over filled the dish or made the batter thick in will end up soggy. In order for batter puddings to rise and be light and airy, they need a hot oven and hot fat so problems such as the above may also be as a result of the oven or fat being too cool.
