Lyons cakes sponge puddings - golden syrup pudding review

Lyons cakes have these sponge puddings that come in three flavours: Cherry bakewell, Sticky Toffee and Golden Syrup.
After trying the Cherry Bakewell I was convinced to get the other two.
So now that I have tried the Sticky Toffee and Golden Syrup I can concluded that Cherry Bakewell and Golden Syrup are my favourites.
Sticky toffee is quite sweet and the dates makes the sponge a bit gritty hence the Golden Syrup pudding is nice and comforting with some plain custard or alcoholic cream.

Lyons cakes sponge puddings - Sticky toffee review

After falling in love with the Lyons cakes cherry bakewell sponge a few days ago, I decided to get the sticky toffee and syrup sponge pudding to review.
I tried the sticky toffee first because it has treacle and syrup according to the ingredients.
As expected the sponge was really nice, it was soft and fluffy which goes well with custard so I can't wait to try the syrup sponge.
I think I am going to like the syrup sponge because it is just simply sponge and syrup compared to the sticky toffee which has dates in it as well.
Overall, Lyons sponge puddings have impressed and fared better than some supermarket brands.

Lyons cakes sponge puddings - Cherry bakewell review

I was at One Below for some stuff and spotted these sponge puddings by Lyons Cake since 1884.
There was cherry Bakewell, sticky toffee and golden syrup which were all tempting.
It is frustrating no one has reviewed these puddings hence I decided to try the Cherry Bakewell.
The puddings only require 30 seconds in the microwave and best served with custard.
I didn't have any custard in the cupboard so tried the cherry Bakewell on its own.
Although it was a bit sweet, it was actually really nice.
The sponge was rather moist but there was a strong aromatic cherry flavour complimented by the cherry sauce which dripped down the pudding nicely.
Will definitely buy the sticky toffee and syrup soon.
The best thing is that these have a good long shelf life so you can stock them up.







If you google J. Lyon, there is so much history on this company which is worth reading.
