The Festive season has always been a special time of year here at Lake House, Daylesford.
Almost 40 years since we opened our doors, we’re delighted to welcome multi-generations and to be a favoured place for families to gather and celebrate milestones and occasions. The Festive Season is no exception. Come December, Christmas lights, decorated Christmas trees, sumptuous wreaths and twinkling candles welcome guests from near and far.
Each year the Lake House take on the traditional Christmas pudding has always been central to a long lunch or dinner over the Christmas holidays, and in recent years those who are not able to join the festivities at our iconic House on the Lake can pre-order their own puddings to enjoy at home.
This much-loved family recipe from our Culinary Director Alla Wolf-Tasker AM is sure to deliver a delicious crescendo to every Christmas celebration. But you’d better be quick to place your order, with only a limited number of puddings available – they tend to sell out quickly each year.
Made right here in Daylesford, this is a dense pudding with rich abundant fruit; raisins, sultanas, currants, orange, lemon and grapefruit peel and segments, apples, ginger, spices and a generous dose of dark ale, rum, sherry & Madeira.
Dress it up with dark fruits; cherries, blackberries, blueberries and mulberries or perhaps a simple caramel sauce with dried and glace oranges? It’s completely your choice. We recommend an Amaro on ice to serve alongside, but you can also never go wrong with a glass of chilled Champagne.
Pudding size – 900g | $49.50 plus shipping
Pre-orders open on 1 October for delivery from 1 December. A limited number of Lake House Christmas Puddings will also be available to purchase on-site at Lake House Daylesford and at Wombat Hill House Daylesford from 1 December until sold out.
