The Fruitiest Trifle Recipe

This multicolor trifle is a quintessential summery treat, the crowning finish of any meal. It's loaded with all the best things including cake, berries and lots of cream (that's flavored with cream cheese as well).

And don't be deceived by it's fancy good looks, you'll actually find it really a breeze to prepare. That is thanks to the use of a store-bought cake to save plenty of prep time and no cool time required.

Did I mention it's a no-bake, no-cook dessert as well?

There's just a few simple steps here of chopping, whipping and layering.

And while it's true that many of us may not be big fans of store-bought cakes, this recipe is one of the best ways to doctor up an otherwise boring and slightly dry angel food cake. The secret is in the fresh lemon and honey glaze that's brushed over it.

I think you'll love the flavor in this dessert! Everything here pairs beautifully together and it's sure to be a highlight of any summer gathering!

A Year Round Treat!

These are the perfect treat to make any time of year because they are made using frozen blueberries. Of course you can use fresh blueberries but  frozen wild blueberries have been my go-to lately since blueberries aren't in season right now.

The wild frozen are more flavorful than the regular frozen blueberries and they also cook up in no time in this sauce since they are smaller.

And I'm pretty crazy about their color, that gorgeous natural vibrant color they become when they cook down is amazing!
