Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh Tropical Exotics fruits (strawberries, pineapple, grapes, blueberries, mango, or kiwi – diced)
  • 1 ½ cups vanilla pudding (homemade or store-bought)
  • 2 cups soft sponge or vanilla cake, cut into small cubes
  • 1 cup fresh whipped cream
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional)

How to Make Christmas Fruit Trifle

  1. Prepare the Cake: Cut your sponge or vanilla cake into cubes. For a light crunch, air fry at 320°F (160°C) for 2–3 minutes.
  2. Whip the Cream: Beat chilled cream until soft peaks form. Add honey or sugar for a touch of sweetness.
  3. Layer the Trifle: In a clear glass bowl, add layers — cake cubes, vanilla pudding, a colorful mix of Tropical Exotics fruits, and whipped cream. Repeat until your bowl is full and beautiful.
  4. Chill & Serve: Refrigerate for 1 hour before serving. Garnish with mint leaves or cherries for a festive finish.
