I asked a lovely bunch of ladies what food that they love to eat makes them think of Christmas. The answers varied between sweet and savoury. The most popular food mentioned was trifle!
Everyone has their preferred trifle. I like mine simple... jelly with sponge fingers, custard and fresh cream. I don't need anything else however i would never reject any trifle offered.
See links for recipes: Chocolate Trifle, Strawberry Banana Trifle, Raspberry Cheesecake Trifle
Of course there was the traditional Christmas desserts.. pudding, rum balls & mince pies. I don't like any of these so more for you!
The more fruity options of cherries, pavlova and mango
Along the lines of biscuit treats....wafer cigars, gingerbread and shortbread
Savoury choices were roasts of all kinds... turkey, ham (most popular) and pork. Also prawns were mentioned too
I'm not much of a drinker but i do enjoy a drink on Christmas.... seems many others do with egg nog, cold beer and champagne being popular choice

Definitely prawn cocktails and pavlovas, it's guaranteed to be on the table at Christmas in our home!
Mmmmmmmmmmm rum balls and chocolate wafers!!!!!!!!
I'll give you a bit of french traditions here! My best choice is always foie gras with champagne. And the bûche for dessert.
