## **How to Make It**
### 1. **Prepare the Fruit and Cake**
Wash and slice your fresh fruit into bite-sized pieces. Cube the pound cake or sponge cake into small chunks.
### 2. **Layer the Trifle**
In a large clear glass bowl or individual serving glasses, start with a layer of cake cubes. If you like, sprinkle a little fruit juice or liqueur over the cake to keep it moist and add flavor.
### 3. **Add Custard**
Spread a layer of creamy vanilla custard or pudding over the cake.
### 4. **Add Fruit**
Add a generous layer of mixed fresh fruit.
### 5. **Repeat Layers**
Repeat the layers — cake, custard, fruit — until your dish is full, ending with a layer of whipped cream on top.
### 6. **Chill and Serve**
Refrigerate the trifle for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld beautifully.
