Instructions

  1. Make the Italian Pastry Cream (the one with the milk and cream "our favourite") and refrigerate for approximately 2 hours.

BERRY FILLING

  1. In a medium pot mix together the berries, nectarine, sugar, cornstarch, water and lemon juice, bring to a boil then lower heat and simmer until slightly thickened. Pour into a bowl, let cool to warm, then refrigerate for about 2 hours.
  2. Remove the pastry cream from the fridge and whisk to soften it up. Whip the cream until stick peaks form, then fold into the pastry cream.
  3. Cut the pound cake into medium sized cubes.

PUTTING IT TOGETHER

  1. In a medium / large bowl (I used a 7 x 5 inch (18 x 12 cm) start by layering ⅓ of the cake on the bottom of the bowl, top with 1/3 of the berry mixture and top with ⅓ of the pastry cream continue for 3 layers. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for approximately 2-3 hours or even overnight. Top with fresh fruit before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

  • The trifle can be made a day in advance and refrigerated. It should be refrigerated at least 2-3 hours before serving or overnight.
  • It should not be left a room temperature for more than two hours. Cover the trifle tightly with plastic wrap and keep refrigerated. It will last up to three days in the fridge, although the longer it is kept in the fridge the longer the cake or cookie base will become soggy. I do not recommend freezing as the pastry cream filling could separate.
