“Fruitcake”
While fruitcake contains fruit and is often associated with holiday celebrations like plum pudding, it does not specifically include the elements mentioned in the riddle, such as 'flour of England'.

Bread is made from flour and can be associated with England, but it does not include fruit or the specific preparation method indicated by 'put in a bag tied round with a string'.
“Churros”
Churros are a fried dough pastry often linked to Spanish cuisine, but they do not involve flour from England or the specific context of the riddle, as they are not a pudding and lack the fruit element.
