Rugby World Cup semi-finals: the TASTE bake off

This weekend South Africa will take on New Zealand at the 2015 Rugby World Cup semi-finals, while Argentina competes against Australia. For food’s sake, we’ve rounded up a “traditional” treat from each country to battle it out in the TASTE bake off

Saturday 24 October 15: South Africa vs New Zealand

Malva pudding: South Africa

What’s more traditionally South African and satisfying than good old malva pud? We bet it would trump the Kiwis.

While pavlova is not native to New Zealand, the Kiwis do love it.
