The primary ingredients in a Christmas pudding are : raisins, sultanas, currents, mixed dried peel, glace cherries, sugar, treacle, flour, breadcrumbs, brandy/whiskey, butter, nutmeg, cinammon, cardamom, allspice, ginger. Depending on the recipe there may be additional ingredients, or some spices omitted.
