Eton Mess (strawberries and cream dessert)

Eton Mess

This all-time classic British dessert is one of the most delicious ways to celebrate that other summer favourite – strawberries and cream.

Eton mess is traditionally served on June 4 at the prize-giving picnic at Eton College and is reported to have been sold at the school “sock” (tuck) shop since the 1930s. Myth has it that the pudding came about after a dog sat on a picnic basket, crushing the strawberries and cream inside. The Eton picnickers went ahead and tucked in regardless, enjoying the end result so much that they went on to recreate the pud. It’s more likely, however, that the dessert’s name comes from the now archaic meaning of “mess” as a portion of food.
