Serves 6-8

Fallen Chocolate Souffle with Armagnac Prunes

This is the recipe for all those who daren't attempt a souffle: it's supposed to sink! You can freeze both the souffle and sauce and, if you prefer, use port or amaretto instead of French-inspired Armagnac for the prunes.

Serves 6

Caribbean Bananas Baked in Rum served with Rum Syllabub

Rum-soaked raisins and rum in the syllabub mean that this recipe has an alcoholic kick to it… A really lovely dessert that's easy to make and will go down a treat.

Serves 6-8

Traditional English Custard

There are times when, for speed, bought fresh custard is fine, but when you're cooking a leisurely Sunday lunch make sure you make the real deal to go with your pies and crumbles - it's dead easy once you know how!

Serves 4

Zabaglione Ice Cream with Biscotti

Make zabaglione then take it a stage further with this divine taste of Italy including Marsala and crushed amaretti biscuits. A rich but indulgent dessert.

Makes about one 17½ fl oz (500 ml) preserving jar

Spiced Cranberry and Claret Jelly

Subtly spiced, this wonderful jelly will give you a taste of Christmas all year round with roast meats, game, cheese or pate.

Serves 8

Cumberland Rum Butter

With just three ingredients it's possible to make this classic accompaniment to mince pies, Christmas pudding and other festive finales. But it would also partner pies, crumbles and tarts all year round.

Serves 6-8

Traditional Raspberry Trifle

Using fresh raspberries for this luscious trifle makes it even more of a treat, with trifle sponges, raspberry jam and custard adding the other dimensions. You could even use a ready-made custard if short of time.

Serves 6-8

Custard

Who doesn't love custard, especially when it's this creamy, with flecks of real vanilla seed - just the job with any wintry dessert such as a crumble, apple pie or steamed treacle pud.
