trifle pudding recipe

trifle recipe with step by step photos – easy trifle pudding with mixed fruits.

trifle was the first dessert i learnt in my home science cooking classes. this was the first time i came to know that such a pudding existed. the flavors and textures were so superb, that after that i made trifle many times. this recipe was also requested by a few readers.

initially i would get the sponge cake from out to make the pudding, but now i make the sponge cake at home. this famous english dessert is still a favorite with the family.

in this trifle pudding except fruit jelly all the elements are there. i did not add jelly as the ready made jelly packs contain gelatin. and if i have to make any fruit jelly at home with agar agar, it will take a lot of time. so i skipped the jelly. if you can get ready vegetarian jelly pack, then you can make the jelly a day before and then use it. you can also set the jelly liquid in the pudding itself. though this way, making the pudding will take time as you will need to refrigerate it for the jelly to set.

trifle pudding makes for an excellent dessert in parties. it quite easy to assemble, chill and then serve. you can also make individual portions of the layers in dessert glasses and bowls. this is a kid friendly recipe as i have not use sherry or any other alcohol.

ingredients and tips to make trifle pudding:

  1. an eggless sponge cake or a basic vanilla cake. you can also use an eggless chocolate cake. make at home a day before or buy from the market or a good bakery. you can also use leftover cake.
  2. vanilla custard – custard can be made with custard powder or corn starch (known as corn flour in india). if adding corn starch then add some vanilla extract or essence in the custard. use the same amount of corn starch as mentioned in the recipe below and add ½ tsp vanilla extract/essence
  3. mixed fruits – fruits like apples, mangoes, papaya, chikoo (sapota), figs, pomegranate can be used. even berries give a great flavor and texture. avoid adding citrus fruits, cherries and melons as they are incompatible with milk as per ayurveda. even bananas with milk are incompatible and cause lethargy, but i did add bananas :-)
  4. whipped cream – you can use a low fat cream or even whipping cream. i only get amul cream where i live, so i have used that. you can also use malai (cream floating on top of milk). just whip ½ cup of malai till it become smooth and gets soft peaks.

lets start step by step easy trifle recipe:

1. warm 3 tbsp milk in a microwave or in a small steel bowl on the stove top. then add 3 tbsp custard powder to the warm milk. keep this custard powder paste aside.

2. stir and dissolve the custard powder very well in the milk. there should be no lumps.

5. bring the flame to low. then add the custard powder paste and stir quickly with a wired whisk, so that no lumps are formed. keep on stirring continuously till the custard thickens. usually for trifles, i make a thick custard. but if you want a slightly smooth and flowing consistency, you can keep that. allow the custard to cool at room temperature. also keep in mind, that as the custard cools, it will thicken more.

6. in another bowl, take ½ cup chilled cream. i used amul cream here. you can use whipping cream or a 25% to 50% low fat cream. add ¼ tsp vanilla extract.
