"Given the plethora of local rivals, it takes a bold establishment to claim its Bakewell puddings as "original," but those served here are among the best you'll find."
"One of those who claims to have invented the Bakewell Pudding, this place has a lovely 1st-floor tearoom with exposed beams that serves light meals and afternoon teas on tiered trays."
"It was glorious, relentless, and the perfect pudding for a glutton like me."
"This quaint, stone-built cottage in Bakewell is where Mrs Wilson first set up her pudding-selling business in around 1860. Bakewell puddings are still handmade here today from the same (and secret) recipe."
"It actually tastes surprisingly good: an egg custard with almonds and jam doesn’t sound like a winning combination but somehow, it works. The mix has different textures throughout and the pastry adds a satisfying crispness."
"It was fresh baked, and sent my taste buds into a rumba of excitement."
"Bakewell pudding (never ‘tart’) tastes best when you have purchased it ceremonially from the Old Original Bakewell Pudding Shop in the main square."
