Christmas trifle

INGREDIENTS
1pkt strawberry flavoured jelly
1 pkt lime jelly
6 cups milk
6 tbsp custard powder
6 tbsp sugar
600ml cream, whipped
1 punnet strawberries
1 tin (825g) sliced peaches
1 tin (425g) mango slices
1 swiss roll
1/2 cup or sherry or orange juice

PREPARATION
1. Prepare jelly as per packet instructions and refrigerate.

2. Prepare custard as per instructions using the custard powder, sugar and milk. Refrigerate.

3. Whip cream and refrigerate.

4. When ready to assemble, drain the peaches and mango.

5. Slice the swiss roll and lay in the bottom of the bowl. Sprinkle over the sherry or orange juice.

6. Lay ingredients in the following order. Green jelly, half of the custard, peaches, red jelly, custard, mango and then cream.

7. Smooth the cream out and decorate the top with the hulled and halved strawberries.

NOTES
This recipe takes a bit of preparation but it it's worth it in the end.
You can make this the day before you need to serve it. I think it's actually better 24 hours later.
You can exchange the sherry for orange juice for a child-friendly option.

Mixed Review: Crate & Barrel vs. Trader Joe's Cornbread : " 'The Trader Joe's cornbread was some of the best cornbread I've tasted, from a mix or otherwise.' Ever wonder about a boxed mix you've seen in the store? Is it any good? Could it replace something you'd otherwise make from scratch? Welcome to Mixed Review , where the whole point is putting boxed mixes to the test! —The Mgmt. Two years ago, I did a roundup of standard supermarket cornbread mixes for this column and was generally unimpressed with all of them. They were gummy, thin, and cloyingly sweet.
