Backstage about this picture was, that I had everything figured out, all the frames. But then it turned out that it freaked me a bit to walk on this fallen tree, especially most of it was in the lake.
English berry pudding is one of my delicious failures and this is also a reason why I share it. Things do not have to be perfect, as long as they are delicious. I made it twice in hope that it will turn out well (bread will soak juice and look all pinkish). It didn’t, but both times we ate it all with a pleasure. This is what I do – try and try and try. I blame the bread, maybe it wasn’t the best choice.
This time I organised a girls early morning out. Yes, it is a thing. My friend came over to chill and I could not imagine to do it in the most perfect place like over a lake. Maybe the timing was not perfect (5am), but hey, she said yes. When we arrived a fog was covering the lake. It looked slightly like a scene from a horror movie, but was also beautiful. Jula took her part very seriously, kept walking on a fallen tree, was drinking hot cocoa and eating so I can photograph it. True friends are worth more than diamonds.
The only thing about starting so early is that you come back home minutes before your kid wakes up…

I was introduced to this berry pudding by Miss Food Wise and I am sure hers soaked much better. One day mine will soak well as well. Till then I’ll enjoy this delicious failure.
YOU WILL NEED (for 6):
- 250g berries (raspberries, blueberries and strawberries), more to decor
- 2 tbsp sugar
- ¾ cup red currant juice
- 2 tbsp corn starch
- 6 big slices of white bread
- whipped cream for serving
Place ½ fruits in a pot (if strawberries are big, cut them in half), add juice, sugar and start to cook. When it gets soft, smash it with a fork. Add cornstarch mixed with a bit of cold water and mix it all. Add the rest of fruits, cook for about 2 minutes and it’s ready.
Fill each bread hole with hot berries. Let it cool and place in a fridge overnight. In the morning your breakfast is ready. Just add some whipped cream and fresh fruits.
Enjoy, Marta

Thank you Finja <3
Can I have this for dessert? I would have this or dessert anytime. I think it doesn’t look like a failure, it looks rather dramatic and pretty, and really really appetizing!!

Of course you can <3 And thank you! It is so good, I just wanted to share it 😀
Nice post. The pictures you have captured from the top are quite balanced and pretty. Would the pudding be different with brown bread?
