NOTES
1. Cake: Make a delicious cake with this simple recipe, or buy it ready-made. I often use leftover cake crumbled in yogurt or on ice cream. Delicious!
2. Strawberries: This recipe is also delicious with raspberries, blackberries, or red currants.
3. Vanilla extract: Vanilla extract typically contains a little alcohol. If you do not have vanilla extract at home or do not want to use alcohol, you can replace it with two teaspoons of vanilla sugar.
4. Storage
- Refrigerator: Store a trifle in the fridge until you are ready to eat it. You can keep this Individual Strawberry Trifle for up to 2 days. Cover it lightly with plastic wrap.
- Freezer: You cannot freeze a trifle.
