This trifle is a bit too heavy for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had used a lighter cake, like a sponge cake. I also think it would have been better if I had used less whipped cream.

This trifle is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had used a less sweet chocolate cake. I also think it would have been better if I had used fresh cherries instead of canned cherries.
