Sticky toffee pudding is a traditional dessert with a rich history in English cuisine, known as "sticky toffee pudding". Its origin dates back to the Yorkshire region of England during the 20th century. This delicious dessert combines a moist and fluffy texture with the intense sweetness of caramel, which has made it popular in many countries. In Latin America, although it doesn't have a universal name, it is sometimes simply called "date pudding with caramel" due to its characteristic ingredient. This dessert has been adopted and adapted in various cultures, gaining variations in ingredients and techniques, but always maintaining its sticky and sweet essence.
In countries like Mexico, Colombia, and Argentina, sticky pudding can be found with slight variations and is accompanied by sauces that enhance its caramel flavor. In some places, brown sugar or panela is used to give it a more local touch, while in others the classic English recipe is maintained. Its versatility and flavor make it a favorite at celebrations and family gatherings throughout Latin America.
