Christmas desserts for the kids

SANTA is coming and the excitement has reached fever pitch in this neck of the woods. 

Children don’t necessarily enjoy traditional Christmas cakes not to mention plum pudding, even mince pies elicit an unceremonial yuk! So this week’s column is especially for the kids, I have chosen treats that my own grandchildren seem to love, like frosted tangerines or mandarins. They also love all kinds of popsicles or ice-lollies made with fresh fruit juices or purees.

The chocolate Christmas tree from my first Simply Delicious Christmas is still a hit, as is the meringue and white chocolate pomegranate confection that Rory and I assembled on the Christmas programme a few weeks ago.
