A symphony of textures and flavors, this Trifle is a delightful dessert featuring layers of sponge cake, luscious fruit preserves, wobbly jelly, creamy pudding, and a cloud of whipped cream, finished with a sprinkle of bittersweet chocolate. A classic reimagined for the modern palate.

Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 hrs

Slice the sponge cake and generously spread each slice with strawberry jelly. Create mini-sandwiches with the cake slices and arrange them artfully at the bottom of a glass trifle bowl or serving dish. Prepare the gelatin according to package instructions and gently pour over the cake layer. Refrigerate until the gelatin is fully set, approximately 2 hours.

02

Step
30 mins

Once the gelatin has set, evenly pour the prepared vanilla pudding over the top. In a chilled medium bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently spread the whipped cream over the pudding layer. Sprinkle the finely chopped bittersweet chocolate evenly over the whipped cream. Chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve, allowing flavors to meld for at least 30 minutes.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of sherry or brandy to the cake before layering with jelly.
Fresh berries can be incorporated between the gelatin and pudding layers for added texture and visual appeal.
Use a high-quality bittersweet chocolate for a more intense and balanced flavor.
