The names given to this pudding and the methods of preparing it varied considerably in different districts. Similar in consistency to egg custard, it was eaten quite regularly in many areas. Pwdin llo bach (calf pudding) was a common name given to it in the counties of Denbigh and Merioneth, but it was known as pwdin llaeth tor in Anglesey.
