Excellent history – and really interesting foods. Reminds me a lot of the things on the Townsends youtube channel – tastes we've forgotten.
Fascinating.
My mother made us eggs a la neige for special occasions in my childhood. I attempted to make it once and I failed miserably 😢. Thank you for this video, all of these are tempting.
Quince grows well in our part of Oregon. We make it each fall.
Spoiler alert: Instant pudding is apparently the culprit that killed off all these desserts. 😅
Took me a while to realize the 'pudding' at the end of some of the names (Baked Alaska Pudding) is the English word for "dessert" kind of pudding and not American style Jello-type pudding.
My motherafe Queei of pudding and made,Baked Alaska too
Instant pudding is awful
Quince paste candy is readily available at most markets in
Mexico. It's inexpensive and delicious!
My classy self is sitting down to this video w/ a root beer float😋
I remember some of those must try some of them again.
Not about desserts from the 1970s and filled with stock footage of desserts that don't match the narration. Awful.
People are just too lazy to make them. Grandma or mom had to make them before. Now it fruitloop marshmallow squares because their too lazy to go buy rice crispys
Baked alaska is still made
Had syllabub and tipsy cakes in restaurants in scotland 2 years ago. Both delicious.
And quince paste is easy to find still in France, you can buy it it, a great treat for christmas. I make my own every year ! Snow eggs , or oeufs à la neige , are not rare at all ! A very traditionnal desert ( France) . Sometimes called iles flottantes. A favorite dessert in my household.
I still make baked Alaska love it still my mum made it all through our childhood I am now in my sixties
I think he meant the 1870's😂😂😂😂
who wants all that overly fluffy Victorian nonsense back? good riddance!
Fast foods brought in synthetic desserts that taste sweet and no flavour
Quince paste is not forgotten, nor difficult to find in Western countries outside of the US…
The pronunciation of blancmange and mange is something else. Apparently, Jesus was laid on a mange 😆😆😆😆😆😆
Everyone stopped eating junket when yoghurt became more generally available. Blancmange, baked alaska, queen of puddings and other trifle type desserts are still popular in many homes in UK
I still make baked Alaska pudding. Have one half done in the freezer, just need the meringue. And I make mine in the oven, not with a torcher.
The first one is an ice cream cake now still the same thing without the meringue. Queen of puddings is literally any layered pudding. The pie is literally replaced with pumpkin and sweet potato pies, even apple pies
