To prepare this pudding, you can typically heat it in a microwave or an oven. For microwave heating, remove the film and heat for a specified time until thoroughly warmed through. If using an oven, transfer the pudding to an oven-safe dish and heat at a moderate temperature until hot. The pudding is best served immediately after heating to ensure optimal texture and warmth. The accompanying toffee sauce can be gently warmed separately if desired, or poured over the pudding as is.
