ENGLISH TRIFLE!!!

What a stunning dessert the trifle makes with its multiple layers that delight with so many colors, textures and flavors. The English have enjoyed this dessert for over three centuries now.  Although the dictionary defines 'trifle' as being something insignificant, this dessert is anything but. Its beginnings were humble as the first trifles simply consisted of a mixture of boiled cream and a few other ingredients. It wasn't until the mid 18th century that the trifle started to evolve into what we have today.
