Don't just giggle at the can- open it and eat it!
There is nothing more wonderful than Spotted Dick with lashings of custard and a good cup of strong tea with friends. YUM! I keep it in the cupboard and am ready for friends and tea at a moment's notice. This is a rich sponge cake with currents and savory rich tones of brown sugar. The chocolate and sticky Toffee and Treacle are all good too - when you can get them.
I know the name seems a bit naughty--it just adds to the fun of offering some cultural engagement to our wonderful world. I do slip it into gifts and offer to bring dessert to friends. BUT I also love this line of products for the QUALITY!

British food is often poorly regarded by comparison to the cuisine of our European neighbours: France, Italy, Germany and Spain. Yet in some areas Britain truly leads the world - where would we be without the sandwich, for example?
Another area of British culinary pre-eminence is the steamed pudding, amongst which the Spotted Dick is king. As a pudding-fan, I am deeply saddened that several, rather puerile, reviewers find this name mildly amusing. I doubt they would stoop to such pathetic attempts at humour if they had bothered to taste it first.
Take my word for it: nothing tastes better than a mouthful of dick, especially if it comes with a load of hot custard.

There once was a fellow named Mick
Whose tackle had never been sick
Till he put it somewhere
Many others had dared
Now Mick has a fine spotted... pudding.
Hey, we do what we must to satisfy the censors!

Great treat...
A fantastic British treat. Open the can, place the steamed cake on a plate and heat 30 seconds in the microwave. Enjoy it warmed with some Bird's custard and I'm in heaven!

I Prefer My Dick Non-Spotted
Admittedly, I'm pretty picky when it comes to dick. Granted, I like dick as much as the next fruitcake, but the spotted kind weirds me out. Read more

Not bad - for a Heinz product
I was surprised that this was good at all coming out of a can from Heinz. Not quite the same as homemade, but what ever is? Read more

Quite Good. Much Too High In Calories.
I was in a local grocery store that has a lot of items imported from England when I saw cans of Heinz Spotted Dick Pudding. Well, I'd heard of it. Hasn't everyone? Read more
