Lemon Curd Trifle with Fresh Berries

Emily Mistrzak

1 small jar of lemon curd

1 pint of fresh blueberries

1 prepared lemon poundcake

1 pint of fresh strawberries (halved)

2 c. sweetened whipped cream

Fresh mint leaves for garnish

¼ c. of Limoncello or Grand Marnier (optional)

This might mean you need to make a lemon pound cake yourself. No shame in making that process as easy as you can.


Slice the poundcake into 2” pieces. Pu the berries in a mixing bowl & toss until evenly distributed. Fold the whipped cream into the lemon curd to lighten it to a louse. Line a deep serving bowl with pieces of the pound cake. Drizzle or brush with Limoncello, spoon a layer of the curd over the cake, then add a layer of berries. Repeat with berries as the last layer. 

A beautiful assembly!


Chill before serving. Add fresh mint garnish.

Totally forgot the garnish, though.


My Rating: 4/5 "This is visually stunning and the fruity accents are really tasty. I might have liked a little more of the creamy stuff, in part because my pound cake came out a little dry. (The latter was definitely a me problem and not a recipe problem.) Trifles are designed to impress, and this one does the job well!"
