This trifle is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would have preferred a more tart lemon curd. The pears were also a bit too soft. I think I would have preferred them to be a bit more crunchy. Overall, I thought this trifle was just okay.

I thought this trifle was just okay. The flavors were a bit too tart for my taste. I also found the texture to be a bit dry. I wouldn't recommend this recipe unless you're a fan of tart desserts.
