Afternoon Tea | Mini Lemon Pudding Cakes Recipe

Hello, everyone! Today I'm making Little Lemon Pudding Cakes for Afternoon Tea. The cakes are light, lemony, and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. Printable recipe is on my website here: www.agardenforthehouse.com/li...

[@ivorybow]

My heart is leaping with joy! You have made a recipe I have been looking for for 30 years or more! When I was about 13, my Girl Scout troop took cooking classes. We had a little spiral bound cookbook and we each chose a recipe. Your lemon pudding cake was the one I chose. It was so perfect and I made it for my family all the time. My first cooking triumph! I am now 75 and that little cookbook is long gone. Thank you so much for this!

[@janicegame2372]

Dear Kevin, I get quite tearful when watching your wonderful videos! I do so love your walks in your beautiful grounds and garden, I think your gentle nature comes through. I made a similar pudding years ago,I am 75 now, so am delighted to make this again! I love the blue china wear the decoration and your lovely home, seeing and hearing you gives me peace thank you so much I send my love to you and yours! Jan ❤

[@annierosenberg9384]

When I was a child I watched Mr. Rogers and now I watch Kevin! His videos and posts are so warm and comforting at a time we need it most. Much love and thanks to you Kevin.

[@arj-peace]

That's it! You have articulated for me why I'm drawn to Kevin's videos. He feels like a welcoming friend the way Mr Rogers made you feel, like you really are hanging out with him, a kind soul completely without judgement, genuine love for all his guests, and you learn some great things too, then come away feeling happier and more connected to the world. 💞

[@LivRainbow365]

…agreed! Mr Rogers & Bob Ross (“little yellow clouds”), w/ a bit of Julia Child sprinkled in! Calming & sweet, & so very much wonder to share! How blessed are we?! Thank you, Kevin. 💜

[@drummerlovesbookworm9738]

Exactly. Please rattle the zipper on your hoodie for us, Kevin! 😂🥰

[@evelynmoore-mo3mu]

I was thinking exactly this today. Knowledgable, friendly, inviting. Thank-you Kevin.

[@lentilgoddess]

My blood pressure shot down several points after watching this video! Kevin--your kind nature, lovely home, and delicious recipes are a real delightl.

[@gabrielleangelica1977]

I know, right? ...and I can prove it too!

[@margaretkearney3525]

What a lovely homage to such a delightful man

[@savesoil3133]

Since you are interested in food: It is said that by 2045 we would be producing 40% less food than what we are producing right now and our population would be over 9.3billion people. #nosoilnofood Let's act now #SaveSoil I thought it's important to share #SaveSoil #ConsciousPlanet #Mentsükatalajt #Tudatosbolygó Love from Hungary 💓

Now in my dessert recipes file. The photography and editing is flawless!

[@Ludivine664]

Thank you Kevin for this lovely recipe. The little cakes sound divine. Definitely will try this recipe soon. Congratulations, on winning the hearts of 35,000 subscribers. You had me at hello , Dear One. 😘

[@ZalthorAndNoggin]

Congratulations of 30,000 subscribers. I predict 100,000 before too much longer. These Life Style videos of yours are sublime. Kevin, you are spoiling us this week! I love lemon recipes. I recently made some lemon souffles created by our UK Queen of cookery, Delia Smith but I was disappointed as they required Lemon Curd in the bottom of the ramekins and they tasted sickly. Your Lemon Pudding Cakes stay well clear of Lemon Curd [thank goodness], just beautiful fresh lemons and from the looks they are simply delicious. Lemons on my shopping list this week. I've simply GOT to give these a whirl. Thank you so much as usual for explaining everything so simply. Wonderful as always. xx

[@itzakpoelzig330]

There's so little flour in these pretty cakes that I bet they would work perfectly with a gluten free flour. I'm going to give it a try!

[@mebythesea5]

You have got to have the kindest, most genuine smile I have ever seen, Kevin! Now, on to watching this delicious looking video. Thank you! :)

[@maryandrews4097]

What a clever idea to make a version of Lemon Sauce Pudding a form of which I've been making for years. My recipe here in the UK, I was told by the friend who gave it to me, came from New Zealand. Kevin and friends are truly global. My version is simply baked, also in Bain Marie, in a fairly shallow baking dish. I look forward to trying the ramekin option. I am wondering if a six hole silicone muffin tray might be an alternative? I hadn't thought of little puddings as a teatime option but why not live adventurously? It has reminded me of a really easy traybake which I make for admittedly infrequent tea parties or bring and share events. This can be baked in a square or oblong pan using a Victoria sponge mixture flavored with lemon zest and a dash of the juice. Top with simple icing, not too runny but not too stiff, made just without powdered sugar and lemon juice. Cut the cake into oblong slices and decorate each slice with a piece of glace cherry and two small pieces of angelica arranged to look like leaves pointing out at a narrow angle from the central cherry. This looks pretty and these lemon slices are usually popular because there is a nice balance between sweet and sour. Kevin always complains that his videos are too long - not so; you do your followers the courtesy of believing we have a reasonable attention span. I am afraid I am inclined to go on too long in these comments. I get a bit carried away once I apply finger to smartphone. So please Kevin make your videos as long as you please.

dont want to make Mr Fox jealous but the most gorgeous eyes!

[@tinaanderson6853]

Kevin, I've only just found you, and all I can say is: WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?! 😊 Thank you for sharing your lovely home and inviting us in for an elegant adventure of afternoon tea! What a special treat! Your genuine kindness and calm nature just oozes from your video as you prepare the food for a relaxing break from all that's busy and chaotic. Your voice is so soothing and I feel as though I'm right there in your lovely music room, and most welcome there! Classical music plays throughout my home as I work, whilst my kitty cat, Pippa, rests on her little blanket on the corner of the desk most of the day! I, too, love to have my friends and family in for small dinners and enjoy making unique items, such as mini Pavlovas, etc. Thank you so much, Kevin, and may God bless you. 😊

[@rickm5271]

I totally agree with Natalia who commented earlier. I feel so much more relaxed with these videos and Kevin's kind and gentle manner. I love these videos so much! I am running through the "catalog" and enjoying all of them. You are now at 60k plus subscribers and are worthy of many more!

[@allakonakova5939]

I'm looking forward to the new videos, Kevin. The pudding looks appetizing. Music 🎶.... Beautiful serving 🍽 ... And your kindness.. Fascinate I'm looking forward to the new videos, Kevin. The pudding looks appetizing. Music 🎶.... Beautiful serving 🍽 ... And your kindness.. Fascinate.. ☀️💙💛💚

My dear friend Kevin-Thank you so much for this warm and cosy "Teatime" atmosphere. Everything looks great - I love cookies and cake with lemon or orange .

[@betsymcgovern3267]

I love seeing the autumn leaves outside your beautiful house. And I love that you appreciate the niceties of life. You are one of my new heroes. Is that your piano playing at the beginning? Excuse me now, I have to go make tea!

[@ginawingrove7061]

The recipe is amazing and I can't wait to try these little lemon puds x thank you so much for the video, I look forward to them every week now ☺ ps that blue top you had on earlier is definitely your colour x thank you again x

[@amberpicchi6861]

just told my person he'd better start to like lemon quickly. lol thank you

[@taowright]

This recipe looks so very delicious, I will have to try it -- I like the idea of individual pudding cakes. You created a warm, welcoming video -- reminds me of a modernized scene from Downton Abbey. Thank you, Kevin, a delight to watch.

[@dajanaspaargaren9060]

[@kathleenmathews6096]

These look delicious. I knew there was a reason I included lemons in my grocery shopping yesterday. 😊

[@melbert22]

Really enjoyed this video! The production quality was fantastic, the recipe commentary, clear and the resulting pudding cake looked FABULOUS! :) I like how you give the metric equivalents, and I especially appreciate that you allow for substitutions of kitchen equipment! I guess I am one of the last people in the country to not have a stand mixer! Your house and yard are looking GREAT! :)

[@Wanda6308]

That looks amazing. I can hardly wait to make it. My husband sure has been enjoying these wonderful recipes as well as myself. Thank you so very much. You're a fantastic teacher.

Thanks for commenting -- I'm so glad you enjoyed the cake!

[@curtischildress9580]

Very pretty to serve & surely delicious. I'm always curious to see how other folks do tea. My gatherings at home for tea always include a few sandwich selections followed by either a very nice particular well-plated dessert or a variety of smaller cakes. I have met at some eateries for mid-late afternoon tea which were pleasantly done like yours in the video. I've my few close friends & we like to give ourselves a treat sometimes, either at a nice eatery or at our homes...honestly, we like to play! ...I've never ever made your Lemon Pudding Cakes...how interesting. I've done little cakes, plus 9-inch rounds, that were internally swept inside with waves of delicious fruit ambrosia. I'm now inspired to tackle your recipe to add & offer at my little gatherings. Thank you for posting! When I saw "Afternoon Tea" I just had to click!

[@RoseCottageColleen]

I'm so happy your channel came up on my KZbin. Not only do you live in my area, so I can (and do) frequent the places you recommend, but I love your ideas and recipes. Thank you for a wonderful channel.

[@eveyrapp2078]

Love anything Lemon .. this one sounds wonderful !

[@jacquespoulemer3577]

Kevin, I stumbled upon your channel after watching another youtuber make a lemon cake (I often watch multiples of a recipe to get options) You used twice the lemons, of which I heartily approve. Now where do I being. Your lovely home (reminded me of my grandparent's place which they had from the 1930s until the 1970s. I enjoyed your lovely grounds. I was enjoying my Orange Pekoe Tea from India along with you. Your instructions were clear and kindly. The Vassage was gorgeous and the piano. Everything was wonderful. Of course I subscribed right away and look forward to more of your content. I retired to Mexico 37 years ago and built a small home on a nice piece of land which is mostly Garden with huge mango and avocado trees... Wishing you all the best Jacques

Exquisite video. Enjoyed our afternoon tea. Your channel is a reminder that beauty and charm still DO exist ! 🦋🌹

[@Patsy-May]

Hi Kevin, this is the first time I have seen one of your videos. I am from Australia and your little lemon cakes are also a desert here and it’s called Lemon Delicious. It’s baked in a large dish and I grew up eating it and have continued to make it for my family. I never thought of making it in to individual cakes so I will give it a try.

[@Tiffany-vj1tv]

Thank you so much Kevin, this video truly made my day and helped me mentally get in a good place since I have been feeling under the weather lately 👨‍🍳💕🥂I am so grateful for you 😉

Love lemons! I am more of a cook than baker but you may have convinced me to make these. Its absolutely beautiful fall weather here on the East coast and it looks like you're enjoying the same. Thanks for sharing your lovely tea time!

[@donnajones9181]

The reason I love your channel is that you use real greens, i.e., the greenery from your gardens. I can't wait until you take another trip to the Berry Farm you know when you walk down memory lane at holiday time, you want to reminisce with the real greenery and not the fake stuff. XXX dj

What a luscious but simple cake for an afternoon tea. I recently juiced several fresh lemons and grated the zest to tuck away in the freezer for future use. Your little lemon cakes will be the first one I will use my stash for. I am really looking forward to a quiet fall afternoon to enjoy them. Thank you Kevin.
