Method
- Begin by slicing the vanilla sponge cake into 3cm cubes. Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, whip the thickened cream with sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.
- To assemble, take individual serving glasses and start by placing a layer of sponge cake cubes at the bottom.
- Spread a layer of strawberry jam over the sponge cake cubes.
- Add a generous layer of whipped cream over the jam.
- Repeat the layers until the glasses are filled, ending with a layer of whipped cream.
- Garnish the top with fresh strawberries, a sprinkling of crumbled sponge cake, and optional mint leaves for a touch of colour.
- Chill the trifles in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving to allow the flavours to meld together beautifully.
