Baking - the roly-poly pudding

Hello ladies, looking at last week’s sewing tags was such a treat, it was lovely to see the range of treasures found in our sewing baskets and the many interpretations of this theme.

Last week I included a picture of The Tailor of Gloucester with my SEWING tag.  This week I have carried on the Beatrix Potter influence by having Samuel Whiskers as the Star of my BAKING tag!  
  
In the story, Samuel Whiskers gets a rolling pin from the kitchen and together with his wife Anna Maria, who has fetched as much dough as she could carry; they set about making a roly-poly pudding with Tom Kitten as the filling. 

On one side of the tag are two pictures of Samuel Whiskers with his rolling pin, on top of a recipe for roly-poly puddings.  I notice ‘kitten filling’ was not listed among the variations to the recipe!

On the other side of the tag I wrote out the title of the story together with an excerpt from the book and a picture of Tom Kitten rolled up in the dough.

I have used calico as the base of the tag, with a tie of string, both of which are used to wrap up a pudding before steaming.

I couldn’t decide which images to use, so decided to include several, and to use the whole length of the recipe, hence my tag is rather long!

Wishing you all a lovely week in the garden ready for next week’s tag.
