Home Made Trifle Sponges..

I made these trifle sponges yesterday ready for a trifle I was making today.

I like to buy shop bought ones when I am in a hurry and make my own when I have more time.

We love trifles, so it is good to mix them up a bit. I mostly make them up around Christmas, Easter and birthdays.

Just like my Grandma use too.

Passing on a family tradition.

Trouble is they were so yummy, me and the children ended up eating most of them.

I now have to make them up again! Ha!! No worries, they are quick and easy to make.
