Can "pudding" also refer to fruits?

Yes. It's a course, not a type of food.

Not in all circumstances. In Oxbridge colleges, high table would
eat pudding in main hall, but, on a wine night, would adjourn to
the wine room to eat dessert and drink claret, port and dessert
(aka 'pudding') wines with cheese and fruit.

See, there's the class divide. At Manchester we were never provided
with tables which could consume their own food.

'S wossname, innit. Metonymy.

We couldn't afford no metonymy neither. I'll have to complain to
Downing Street.

You could always join Mensa instead.

Canis in mensa stat.

Oops, sorry, was channeling my 11-year-old self with first-year Latin
book.

Cerberus est canis.

My first efforts with the language were out of _Latina pro populo_, which
had rather more interesting animal stories. "Ursus in tabernam introiit et
cerevisiam imparavit...."
