Like a gay lion, the sticky date pudding was once a humble beast. Content to sit on its own, quietly appearing on the menus of certain pubs and upper-middle-class dining rooms, or perhaps serving as a punchline to a long-forgotten dirty joke that never actually existed.

Alongcomes Trampoline with their gelati made from the milk of goldencalves...and the next thing you know, no longer is the blessed union of warm cake with caramel sauce, and ice cream relegated to the fringes of our suburbs. You can now enjoy the womb-like embrace of sticky date pudding at almost any hour of the day, topped with a scoop of Trampoline gelati, served by some vaguely indie-looking underage girl wearing shirts with suggestive slogans, for like, five bucks and change.

The last time food this good was liberated was when the Americans figured out how to put cheese in an aeresol can, and that turned out okay, right?
