Hi Kate, this is a guest post so I am not sure how long they last for. They do last longer than regular puddings as they have rum in them, if this is any help?
I love the addition of apple – and that walnut on top is darling! xx Maria

What a great idea to have them individually made. They look so yummy :)Got here through #PoCoLo
I love the fact that there's three on the plate – they look so scrummy I'd probably have to just scoff the lot and 'eat for three'!
They look really delicious!#PoCoLo
looking delish!! i so wish someone other than just me in our household ate it x
Ooh- they look ace. I think little things are always cuter- unless they are chocolate bars!

This is so cool Claire! Normally we have a big Christmas pudding and cut slices off. It would be great to have an individual pudding.

They look fabulous, but we don't like Christmas pudding in our house (apart from husband!). Daughter said 'yuk' when I read out the ingredients to her! 😉
