Malva pudding

Ouma Lettie’s Traditional Malva Pudding (Serves 4)
A true South African classic 🇿🇦
Our Ouma Lettie’s Malva Pudding is a rich, soft, caramelised sponge dessert made from a traditional family recipe and baked fresh in small batches at Boksburg Deli in Brighton.
This iconic South African pudding is known for its deep caramel flavour, soft buttery texture and warm syrupy sauce that soaks into every bite. Once baked, the pudding is drenched in our homemade buttery cream sauce, creating the perfectly moist dessert that South Africans know and love.
Each tray is generously sized to serve 4 people, making it perfect for sharing after dinner, for family dessert nights, or whenever you need a proper taste of home.
We freeze the pudding immediately after preparation to lock in freshness, so all you need to do is heat it in the microwave and enjoy a warm, comforting dessert in minutes.
Serve it warm with:
• Vanilla ice cream
• Fresh cream
• Custard
Or enjoy it exactly as it is.
Whether you’re a South African missing home or discovering Malva pudding for the first time, this dessert delivers pure comfort and nostalgia in every bite.
