We all have childhood memories of certain foods and these to me are one if those,
We would buy them on a stick at The Easter show or at Luna Park and it was known as a Pluto pup, even when I was older Going to Harrold Park trots I had one of these.
I grew up in Riverwood , and a shop there sold them without a stick and it was a battered Sav

I found this recipe awhile ago and it takes me back to these times
