Based on a Jamie Oliver recipe this, we just veganised! Extra pictures of the various steps below.
1 vegan sponge cake, thinly sliced up (see cake page if you need a recipe)
some jam to spread on the cake
1 or 2 tubs of vegan ice cream – we used Swedish Glace Vanilla
a small bag of unsalted, shelled pistachio nuts
a handful of glace cherries
some dairy-free white chocolate buttons
a bar of good dark chocolate
Line a round pudding bowl with cake slices (leave some for the base) and spread a layer of jam over them. Get your other ingredients ready before taking the ice cream out of the freezer, then layer it up. A layer of ice cream, a sprinkling of nuts, ice cream, cherries, ice cream, buttons, ice cream then the last slices of cake on the base. Cling film the whole bowl really well and use a plate to press down and squash all the layers together well. Bung it in the freezer until you want to eat it (can be made weeks in advance). Place in the fridge for about an hour before removing from bowl (may have to run outside of bowl under hot tap, being careful not to wet the pudding!) and pouring the melted chocolate over the top (it sets fast on the cold bombe). Slice up and enjoy 
Triple Chocolate Variant: use chocolate cake, and chocolate ice cream and maybe even chocolate spread though cherry or apricot jam would be good too

This I must try! It looks SO tasty! Hope you’re having a wonderful Christmas! I know the food’ll be good!
We are having a lovely time – hope you are too – the rest of that bombe is calling me from the freezer – pud tonight I think!!
That bombe is saying “eat me” but all I can have of it is a picture on my computer screen. I want to pick it up and bite into it but I can’t.
sadly we have none of left now – finished last night… but pretty easy to make really 🙂
yummy
hope you’ve had a good festive season 🙂 xx
