Trifle is an English dessert made from sponge cake with custard, fruit juice or jelly, and whipped cream, typically layered. The original trifle consisted of whipped cream with sugar, ginger, and rosewater; later, it included sponge cake, almond biscuits, and custard. Trifle is served in a wide, stemmed glass dish or prepared immediately in individual portions, such as in glass cups. In this recipe, trifle is assembled from layers of lemon curd, blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, and sponge cake.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Place the berries in a large bowl and drizzle with half the lemon juice. Toss gently.
- Place the berries, sugar, cornstarch, and remaining lemon juice in a saucepan and place it over medium-high heat. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook until the berries begin to break down and release their juices, about 3 minutes. Remove the berries from the heat and let cool; the mixture should thicken as it cools.
- In a clean bowl, beat the cream with the sugar and vanilla until soft peaks form. Place the lemon curd in another bowl and fold in a little of the whipped cream to remove any lumps. Then fold in the rest of the whipped cream.
- To assemble the trifleIn a large glass, make a layer of lemon curd. Add a layer of cake, breaking it into pieces to fit the glass. Then, soak the cake with a layer of berries and berry juice. Make 3-4 layers, depending on the size of the bowl, finishing with a layer of lemon curd. Cover and refrigerate before serving.
