Today we unpack the essence of trifle. Why does trifle work? Why is it so wonderful? Why is Simon crying with joy and nostalgia? Our favourite episodes are always the ones where we “cook” in-studio, and today is no different.

We layer:

Fat cubes of mud cake (I used 1 X Community & Co from IGA) 
1 quantity of red jelly (made the night before)
Washed, hulled and halved strawberries 1 - 2 packets
Double thick custard, 1 tub
Marshmallows (I can’t stand marshmallows so I didn’t use them)
Whipped cream (depending on how creamy you want it, somewhere between 300g - 600g)
Roasted peanuts, mini-marshmallows on top… then topped again with finely shaved dark chocolate.
