Can't decide what to make for dessert this festive season? Check out these 7 delicious treats from Woolworths!

Christmas is just around the corner, which means it's time to start thinking about the delicious dishes you're going to make for the big day!

Traditionally, the main dish is the highlight of a party. However, desserts also have their own special place. Even though they aren’t as much the centre of attention, they are often (unfairly, we might add) overlooked. Unless you’re in April’s family where Rum Balls reign supreme.



There’s nothing quite like having a sweet end to a satisfying meal – it can be the perfect way to cap off a perfect dinner party.

If you're someone who wants to host an impressive Christmas meal for your loved ones, we've got good news for you!



This year, Woolworths has returned with a variety of fuss-free desserts that you can serve on the Christmas table in a matter of seconds (or less).

We're thrilled to share some of our favourites with you. So, without further ado, here are some desserts that caught our eye (and taste buds):

Woolworths Gold Chocolate & Hazelnut & Pudding, $12

This gorgeous dessert is not only picturesque but it is also packed with chocolate goodness that leaves your taste buds wanting for more!

The dessert is made with a thick, chocolatey sponge pudding that is layered with a decadent chocolate hazelnut sauce and topped with toasted, crispy hazelnuts. Think Nutella AND Christmas all in one.

Oh my goodness, we’re just looking at the picture and we’re already feeling full…

Woolworths Gold Gin and Davidson Plum Fruit Mince Tarts, $8.50

This sweet treat is bound to be everyone’s favourite.

The plums, which are cultivated in the Tweed Valley of Northern NSW, are provided to Woolworths by the Buonissimo Bakery. The dessert also features a gin-infused fruit mince so keep these away from the little ones. Finally, a crisp, golden pastry lid is placed on top to give it a nice finish.

These vanilla butterscotch-filled pastries are made with all-butter, premium patisserie-style pastry shells. Topped with a sprinkle of golden honey-roasted macadamias, the shells contain creamy white chocolate and honey filling that’s lightly salted with Murray River salt.

Trifle is my favourite desert, made with Swiss roll, pineapple and egg custard, served with ice cream and jelly.
I always make a clootie dumpling too, which is Christmas pudding made in a cloth.
You must be Scottish! We always had a clootie dumpling at Christmas, and for birthdays we got to choose whether we wanted a birthday cake or a dumpling. I still make one now and then.

I think I'll need deep pockets to get enough of each treat to see me through Christmas. They all look & from the description, sound so disgustingly yummy with every ingredient that is not good for a dieter, if l was one that is. But then that is a small part of Christmas celebrations, isn't it?
