Pudding rice: 1. (chiefly British) a short-grained rice used to make rice pudding; also makes reasonable risotto". . . Didn't realize rice pudding required a certain type of rice.

Black Treacle: "Treacle is the generic name for any syrup made during the refining of sugar cane and is defined as "uncrystallized syrup produced in refining sugar". . . "Dark treacle has a distinctively strong flavour, slightly bitter, and a richer colour than golden syrup, yet not as dark as molasses." From that I would assume Black Treacle is what I would refer to as molasses. Good stuff.

My sister still bakes from scratch. She has a lighter flakier crust than any common bakery, much better IMO. Bread, pie, whatever bakery item is NBD for her.
