Sticky Toffee Pudding is an insanely rich, moist sponge cake made with finely chopped dates, covered in a warm toffee sauce, and often served with vanilla ice cream or custard. While its exact origin is debated, it is a beloved staple in Scottish pubs and restaurants. Order it **"With Extra Sauce"**. The trap is a "microwaved" pudding that is dry in the middle; a real sticky toffee pudding should be almost dripping with dark, buttery sauce. Expect to pay £7–£11.
