Trifle image

What's called "jelly" in America is called "jam" in England, and the English call the American's "gelatin", "jelly"! But, any way you slice it -- spread some fruit preserves over cake, top with a gelled fruity confection, sweetened, stovetop-thickened milk, and whipped cream -- and you've got trifle!

The trifle was a bit dry. I think I would add more custard or whipped cream next time.

The trifle was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I think I would use less sugar next time.
