JohnC Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 I have been invited to a traditional christmas dinner this year and thought it would be nice if I contributed the xmas pud! Are there any problems in food products being posted to thailand? I would hate to pay for one plus post & packing for it to end up in some bin (or customs man belly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leisurely Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Christmas pud. The work of the devil. I saw some in TOPS recently but I am not sure if they were last years stock. You could always make your own, the only difficulty would be the suet I imagine. You could even put some coins in (satangs would be a good substitute for tanners and I have never fathomed the use for the little buggers anyway) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other pain with puds is the ernormous amount of hours required to steam them. Barley wine ( stingo / gold label ) is gettable presumably??

thaigerd Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 May be some good news now from the xmas pud front: Just spoke to a good friend of mine in BKK, he owns a bakery in BKK and does a lot of xmas puds every year, his customers are the good supermarkets and hotels. I suggested to him to register here and post his address, so members could order their xmas puds and pick it up from his bakery. I will send a link now to him.
