Re: Trifles
Hi Brian, make mine with pound cake which is, if you don't get it there, like Madeira cake, cut to fit the trifle bowl base and dowsed with sherry,(or brandy, whatever) topped with fresh fruit, whatever you fancy...I usually go for strawbs, then custard and, finally, whipped cream. Sometimes layer the cake, fruit and custard again but not as a rule.
When I was teaching we often had staff meetings (unpaid) after school and pot luck was not exactly an order but...anyway, I took a trifle not thinking that many of my co-workers were Muslim, boy did they scarf it! When I realised my gaffe I went to the school director and apologised...she just smiled and said basically, it's all right as long as we didn't know! Lol!

Morag that was funny and I like your recipe full of booze, pity they didn't know or you may have converted them to enjoy a glass.
