INGREDIENTS USED IN JELLY CUSTARD TRIFLE

  • STRAWBERRY JELLY

“The strawberry jelly is the star of this jelly custard trifle, adding a vibrant, fruity base that’s both playful and refreshing. Its wobbly texture contrasts beautifully with the creamy smoothness of the custard, creating a delightful harmony in every spoonful. Layered in trifle jars, the jelly not only brings a pop of color but also a burst of nostalgia, making this dessert a perfect centerpiece for parties and celebrations. I have used   this jelly .

  • SUGAR

Sugar in the custard plays a crucial role in balancing the flavors and enhancing the creamy texture. It adds just the right amount of sweetness to complement the fruity tang of the strawberry jelly, creating a harmonious blend of flavors in the trifle. The sugar also helps the custard set smoothly, ensuring every layer is indulgently rich and satisfying.

  • MILK

“Milk is the heart of the custard, providing its creamy base and silky texture. It adds a mild richness that balances the sweetness of the sugar and the fruity brightness of the strawberry jelly.

  • CUSTARD POWDER

Custard powder is the key ingredient that gives the custard its signature creamy texture and subtle vanilla flavor. When mixed with milk and sugar, it thickens beautifully, creating a smooth and velvety layer that perfectly complements the fruity strawberry jelly.

TIPS TO MAKE JELLY CUSTARD TRIFLE

  1. Allow the jelly to set completely before layering to avoid mixing with the custard. Use clear glasses or jars for a visually appealing presentation.
  2. Let the custard cool to room temperature before layering it over the jelly to prevent melting or mixing. Stir occasionally to avoid a skin forming on top.
  3. Include a layer of crushed biscuits, sponge cake, or fresh fruit between the jelly and custard for added texture and flavor.
  4. Refrigerate the assembled trifle for at least an hour to let the flavors meld and ensure it’s perfectly chilled for serving.
  5. Don’t hesitate to switch up the jelly flavors or add a hint of vanilla or fruit essence to the custard for a unique twist.
