Getting my hands on Mrs Peeks puddings

I have always liked Mrs Peeks traditional Christmas puddings in preference to "modern" versions which seem to have all sorts of things added, like Blooming Hestonthal with his whole oranges and lemons.

They were easy to find a few years ago in Tesco and Co-op but I haven't managed to find one in the last couple of years. Has anyone spotted any this year? GONE - '07 TD4 GS manual Zermatt Silver

They're a small independent company as far as I'm aware so the big supermarkets don't really want to know but you could try the co-op or Spar but if no joy with them try writing to them, they have a web site but no email or phone contact number Question

You're right CG, my wife makes ours and you cannot beat them but these are a good substitute when the need arises.

Yorkshire puds are only edible straight from the oven. I've never been a fan of them but as an occasional treat they are fine (a bit like Xmas pud).

We used to make our own Xmas puds but as the rest of the family aren't keen or just don't like them we buy one for the tradition (and me). I just need to find one without nuts or other hard bits, apart from sixpenses (or 3d if you're cheap).

Afraid not CG, while my mother is not a bad cook my wife is the better of the two, if my mother had been better I wouldn't have got married and left home Very Happy oh! And by the way did I mention that my wife is from Yorkshire? Hence the reason why she take so much pride in her Yorkshire pud's Wink Yorkshire lasses are by far and away the best cooks, controversial but true Mr. Green
