Big Fruit Trifle: How To Make

Big Fruit Trifle: Celebrations Not Complete Without One. Hello friends. So how are you today? Trifle anyone? As today I am sharing this fresh fruit trifle. How yummy?

So what trifle means?

Trifle, in English cuisine, is a dessert made with fruit, a thin layer of sponge fingers soaked in sherry or another fortified wine, and custard. It can be topped with whipped cream. It also tastes so good!!

A trifle’s refreshing, chilled nature makes it a delightful contrast to hot tea, providing a refreshing balance to the overall menu. So great for afternoon tea.

A trifle is a layered dessert typically made with sponge cake or ladyfingers, fruit, custard, and whipped cream. The beauty of a trifle is its versatility, allowing you to customise it based on your preferences.

Serves 12-16

Preparation time 20 minutes

How To Make:

1. Firstly, begin by layering the Swiss roll on the base followed by the fruits, custard and yogurt, repeat the layers until the serving dish is three-quarters full – you really can’t go wrong.
2. Whip the cream to soft peaks and either pipe or spoon into the dish to finish the trifle layers.
3. Decorate with scattered fruit and serve immediately.

Big Fruit Trifle:

Is it better to make a trifle the night before? I think so, it gives it time to set completely.

How far in advance should I make a trifle? A day before works out fine.

What order do you layer a trifle? Firstly, begin by layering the Swiss roll to give it a firm base.

Do you put jelly in trifle yes or no? This recipe is a no jelly trifle but try experimenting. Most of my favourite trifles contain jelly!!

How many days can you keep trifle in the fridge? For best result keep 2-3 days from starting making it.

Do you have to put alcohol in trifle? Trifles are yummy with sherry inside but this is a no sherry trifle.

Are Trifle Sponges Gluten-Free? Most trifle sponges are not so you could try making your own with gluten-free flour or not add the sponges to the recipe.

Why not use some gluten-free cupcakes instead?

Trifle With Alcohol?

Trifle With Alcohol? This trifle has not got alcohol in it but if you prefer you could add a splash of alcohol to it. Sherry is especially my favourite spirit to add to trifles.

How Long Will Trifle Keep In The Fridge? This trifle is best made and served straight away. So yummy! But will also last a day or so.

Trifle Without Jelly: This trifle is slightly different from a tradition trifle as it contains a lot more fruit, no jelly and yogurt.

Trifle Without Alcohol: This trifle does not contain alcohol so it will be suitable for children too.

Also great for Christmas and afternoon tea. Don’t you think?

What Topping’s Can You Put On A Trifle?

Here are some common and delicious toppings you can consider for your trifle:

Fresh Fruits: Sliced strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, kiwi, or any other fruit of your choice can add a refreshing and colourful touch, as above.

Shredded Coconut: Toasted or untoasted shredded coconut can add a tropical flavour and a bit of texture.

Chocolate Shavings or Sprinkles: Grated chocolate or chocolate sprinkles can enhance the chocolatey layers and add a touch of sweetness. How about Maltesers?

Nuts: Chopped nuts like almonds, walnuts, or pistachios can provide a delightful crunch to contrast with the soft layers of the trifle.

Caramel Drizzle: A drizzle of caramel sauce or any biscuit spread melted can add richness and sweetness to the trifle.

Crumbled Cookies: Crushed cookies or biscuits such as chocolate wafers, shortbread, or crackers can add a layer of texture and flavour.

Fruit Sauce: Consider adding a fruit sauce or coulis, such as raspberry or mango, for an extra burst of flavour. Or try making your own.

Granola: A sprinkling of granola can provide a crunchy element and a wholesome touch.

Lemon or Orange Zest: Citrus zest can add a burst of citrusy flavour and a fragrant aroma.
