Are the stars on top made of cheese?
The really thick cooking white “chocolate” that is basically grease I reckon. Leaves a sheen wherever you put it.

As I mentioned, nasty, nasty dessert.

ETA- bit of a bad mood today so I am not being overly nice about the trifle. Sorry.

Might have to sign out for a bit lads, just broke my hand punching a wall in a terrible rage after seeing she'd sprayed the trifle gold.

Here is a selfie. Behold my rage.

The gold spray makes it look like it's been charred with a blow torch thingy, like you do with meringues etc.

That's my evil troll-ish opinion on it.

It's better than nothing! (And 344% more edible from being packet mixes!)


I'm actually surprised!
Actually, that's a good point.
Things she gets out of a packet and pretends she made them actually look nice and edible.
Although it is normally savoury things like pre made mash, a meze, Yorkshire pudding. (I think Aunt Bessie is still fuming about that one)
But the fake trifle still looks stupid. (No cake layer, not a trifle. More of a layered blancmange thing)

What's with all the red curtains in the background?

Is she in The Odeon and has sneaked a snack in?

Even the soft pink curtains which make Jack look like a 14 year old aren’t helping the trifle AT ALL.

I think there is custard too… there is definitely a division between the white cream and some grainy yellow/cream thing underneath. All I can think about though is how those “chocolate” stars would leave your mouth feeling greasy and the glitter would leave your teeth feeling like you have eaten a trifle made of sand.

Your feelings on the gold spray are like mine on the cake layer.
Ladyfingers are obviously traditional, but madeira or sponge are acceptable. I would even tolerate a sliced chocolate Swiss roll.

NO CAKE, NO TRIFLE.
