What sort of things does everyone give as puddings other than fruit and yoghurts?

Sponges with custard, fruit with custard (like stewed apples but also tinned pears and peaches are especially good) milk puds such as blancmange, rice pud, semolina, bread and butter pudding, scones with jam, tinned fruit (in juice) with evaporated milk.

Occasioanlly icecream or jelly.

I don't do puddings apart from fruit and yogart. Coming from a family that has a tendancy to put on weight, puddings are reserved as treats

Yoghurt, fromage frais, ice cream... sometimes crumbles, pies or sponges with custard.

I look after 2 children who won't touch fruit which makes me very sad.

We tend to forget that children need the fat and sugar.

I'm not talking about lots or high fat / sugar stuff but they need more than us as part of a healthy diet.

we have ice-cream, home made cakes and buns, banana and custard , chocolate or strawberry mouse.
if i was to do fruit and icecream they wouldnt eat it so i just make sure they have fruit for snacks and veg with tea then pudding is whatever i come accross.
