Normally cut into slices and fried, it is an optional feature of the traditional Scottish breakfast.[2][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] Although served in this context as part of a savoury meal, its close relationship to clootie dumpling means it may also be served as a dessert.[2]
Many Scottish producers of sausage, sliced sausage, black pudding, white pudding and haggis also make fruit pudding.[12] It is not uncommon to find a "breakfast pack" consisting of sausage, sliced sausage, black pudding and fruit pudding on sale in Scottish shops.
