Sticky Date Pudding

What is it?

Warm date-based cake comes served with butterscotch sauce in a small dessert tub. Soft and dense, with that classic sticky crumb you get from treacle, sugar and dried fruit, it's a bakery-style dessert rather than an ice-cream item. Warm it through and the sauce loosens into the sponge, so it turns more spoonable than cakey. Compared with Hungry Jack's soft serve and sundaes, this sits in a different corner of the menu entirely. It leans on the date cake and butterscotch pairing instead of dairy or chocolate, and it's served warm rather than cold. It's one of the more unusual desserts you'll find at a fast-food chain, closer to what you'd get at a pub than a burger joint.
