So, according to Wiktionary, a pudding (the sweet variety anyway) is a type of cake or dessert cooked usually by boiling or steaming. So, by implication, types of cake can be a pudding, but only if they are boiled or steamed.

There's also a definition which states the dessert course of a meal. However, I think that means the course itself rather than any individual dish (the example given is "we're having apple pie for pudding".

So I'm sticking with cake for hot chocolate fudge cake, despite the fact that I don't eat it with my fingers!
 
A cake is something you would have with a cup of tea for elevenses and is cakey. A pudding is something you would have at the end of a meal that isn't cake and is puddingy.

For example spotted d*ck at 11 with a cup of tea with the vicar? Madness.
Spotted d*ck after tea? Bang on. And by tea I mean dinner.
 
I'm stuck really..... Love both😂

Cake...... Anything citrus like lemon drizzle cake (or mams orange👍). Also a classic Victoria sponge.

Pudding.... Its definitely sticky toffee pudding with custard.

I am saying at a push its Cake. I very rarely have pudding as I prefer starters if I have a meal.
