  This was the first trifle I have ever made and it went down a storm on Christmas Day. I had so many compliments and was asked to make it again for New Year's Eve ! Definitely worth doing and took no time at all to make.

  We all loved this recipe. I raspberry jam (to save buying another jar) and it was truly lovely. The mascarpone and custard mixed together is to die for ! My only change next time would perhaps be slightly more jam to help the berries & juices fully soak into the madeira cake. A great success, my mother in law has just emailed me for the recipe link and my non trifle loving husband even loved it.
