Over New Year I made a beautiful trifle that I want to share with you. I’ve been making trifles for years, the simple ones; cake, fruit, more cake, more fruit & topped with custard & cream.
This one is a bit special though.
It’s inspired by Heston 🙂 Did you watch the Masterchef Australia episode when he had the contestants make the Royal Jubilee Trifle? It looked amazing! & so elegant!
The ideas for adding a strawberry compote & a shortbread for crunch were amazing.
The crystallized petals, jellys & such however are all too dainty for my taste so I only incorporate the ideas of the compote & shortbread.
It takes a bit of time to get everything ready, so I make the compote & custard and semi-assemble on one day (the flavors develop more when it stays over night) and then make the cream and shortbread the next day. I only add the shortbread & cream layer a few hours before I serve it.
It’s yummy & delicious and full of taste & texture!
Give it a try for a special occasion & you’re going to fall in love with it!
Cheers!
