Princes have been in my food cupboards since I was first shopping and cooking and cooking, they were a childhood staple too. From corned beef, I remember when it was the only available brand, to tuna. Pineapple chunks to cans of tomatoes.
As you are used to my little history lessons here goes
Founded in 1880 by Simpson & Roberts, Princes has grown from being an importer of canned fish into a leading food and drink supplier with products ranging from fruit juice, canned meat, fish, fruit and vegetables to microwave meals and sandwich spreads. Their commitment to delicious, good quality food remains at the heart of everything they do.
We were often served Princes peach slices for tea, I mostly passed on these as I was never keen on the sweetness of the syrup, I 'm more a savoury girl and eat a lot of my fruit fresh, frozen or tinned unsweetened.
I was sent the Princes Peach Slices in grape juice, and I must say this variety is more appealing to my taste buds.
I wanted to steer away from the tinned fruit and cream dessert there is so much more you can make with tined fruit especially useful if in a rush or the fruit you like is not in season, so decided on this lovely pudding which I knew would appeal to my family. I omitted the almonds as I'm not so keen.
Its such an easy and quick recipe to make, one that all the ingredients can be to hand and so handy if guests pop over.
Don't you think the peaches look pretty in my heart shaped dish?
