Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter and flour a 9-inch spring-form pan. Bring 1 1/2 cups of water to a boil. Add dates and simmer 5 minutes, until dates soften. Turn off heat, but keep dates in water until ready to use. Sift flour together with baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside. Cream together butter with sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, vanilla and drained dates to the butter mixture. Beat until smooth. Add flour mixture and beat until just combined. Pour batter into cake pan. Bake 30 minutes.

Slowly drizzle toffee over pudding making sure the toffee fills in all the holes. Cut into wedges and serve with remaining toffee sauce and pumpkin whipped cream.
