Easy Fresh Berry Trifle Recipe

My easy to make trifle is a brilliant start to spring and is a great mix of cream mascarpone and fresh fruit, plus a little boozy with the sherry.

The weather might not be the best but I’m dreaming of warmer days and nights. This easy trifle is setting me up for spring and tastes brilliant with the fresh berries.

Easy to Make Trifle

As well as being super delicious the trifle is also very quick to make and doesn’t need to be made hours in advance. You can make it 5-10 minutes before serving. Or if you want to make it for a dinner party you have the option to make it in advance. What is so brilliant about this pudding is that it is so versatile. You can add any fruit combinations you like and there is so many ways to present it too. I love making a big trifle but I also love presenting them in individual  jars for parties.
