Strawberry Trifle

How to make a delicious Family Strawberry Trifle. The perfect dessert to serve after your Christmas dinner. Step b step instructions from start to finish.

1

Cut the sponge cake into 2.5cm / 1in cubes, and get them into 2ltr trifle bowl, or any other 2ltr bowl.

2

Wash and slice the strawberries and place them in the bowl too.

3

Make up the strawberry jelly/Jell-O according to the instructions of the brand you are using and pour it over the sponge and fruit.

4

Cover the bowl and get it into the fridge until it sets.

5

Make up the custard, using custard powder as shown in the video.

6

Once the custard is cool and the jelly set, spoon the custard onto the jelly and spread it out and level it off, cover and chill again for 30 minutes.

7

Making up the Chantilly cream, pour the cream into a bowl, add the icing sugar and vanilla, and whisk until thick as seen in the video, chill for 15 minutes.

8

Spoon the cream on top of the custard and spread it out, I find a fork is the best tool for this.

9

Clean up any cream around the top of the glass trifle bowl with kitchen paper.

10

Finely grate a little milk or dark chocolate over the top of the trifle.

11

And that is it, your Strawberry family size trifle is ready to serve.

12

Serve on a dessert plate with some sliced fresh strawberries at the side.

13

Enjoy.
