Is British Pudding Dying Out? Decline Worries Heritage

Is British Pudding Dying Out? Decline Worries Heritage

Traditional British puddings, like apple pie and fruit crumble, are becoming less popular.

English Heritage says these desserts are disappearing because fewer people cook them at home.

This change is linked to more women working and families eating differently.

While many people still enjoy these classic desserts, they are being replaced by easier options like fruit and ice cream.

To try to save them, English Heritage is publishing recipes and offering pudding-flavored treats.
