Ingredients

Scale

    • 1 cup mascarpone cheese
    • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
    • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
    • 1 tsp vanilla extract

    For the Berry Mixture:

    • 2 cups mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
    • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
    • 1 tbsp lemon juice

    For the Layers:

    • 1 package ladyfingers (or sponge cake, cut into strips)
    • 1/2 cup orange juice or berry juice (for soaking the ladyfingers)

    For Garnish (Optional):

    1. Extra berries
    2. Mint leaves
    3. Powdered sugar

Instructions

  • Prepare the Berry Mixture:
    • Toss mixed berries with sugar and lemon juice. Let sit for 10–15 minutes to release their juices.
  • Make the Cream Layer:
    • In a large bowl, beat mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
  • Assemble the Trifle:
    • Dip ladyfingers briefly into orange or berry juice.
    • Layer the soaked ladyfingers in the bottom of a trifle dish or individual serving glasses.
    • Add a layer of mascarpone cream, followed by a layer of the berry mixture.
    • Repeat the layers until the dish is full, finishing with a layer of cream on top.
  • Chill:
    • Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Garnish and Serve:
    • Top with extra berries, mint leaves, and a light dusting of powdered sugar for a beautiful presentation.

Notes

  • You can use any combination of fresh berries depending on what’s in season.
  • For a non-alcoholic option, soak ladyfingers in fruit juice or a light syrup instead of alcohol.
  • Make sure the trifle chills for at least 2 hours for the best flavor.
