Love it maz! Royale puds as we call em are made every year by our kids! When they get older you can get more adventurous with them and make them out of plum pudding. You blitz the pudding to crumb it and add about a cup of chocolate frosting. If you want to cheat use Betty crocker frosting. Then you mix it together and make truffle size balls and flatten one side on a flat surface to get the pudding shape. Then pipe on the leaves and berries with royal icing. They are yummy! To get extra fancy put Lollypop sticks in them and dip in chocolate (bakerella style) and you've got pudding pops! They make great teacher pressies. And you can decorate some a box with styrofoam in it and display them that way at Xmas. Stained glass sugar cookies are good as well as the gingerbread star tree (made from gingerbread stars stacked and iced together) are also fun.

Annnnnnd any baking is easy for kids so long as you have patience it's also a great way to teach maths even when they are little. DS can barely write his name but knows what 1/2 cup is lol!
