1. Prepare all your ingredients. Cut the sponge cake into 2-3 cm cubes and wash the mixed berries. If you are using fruit juice or sherry, pour it into a small bowl.
2. In a trifle dish or a glass bowl, start assembling the layers. Place a single layer of sponge cake cubes at the bottom of the dish.
3. Drizzle a small amount of fruit juice or sherry over the sponge cake layer (optional) to add extra moisture and flavor.
4. Add a layer of mixed berries evenly over the sponge cake.
5. Pour a layer of vanilla custard over the fruit, spreading it evenly with a spoon to cover all the gaps.
6. Add a generous layer of whipped cream over the custard, smoothing it out with a spatula or spoon.
7. Repeat steps 2-6 to add more layers until all the ingredients are used up. Finish with a final layer of whipped cream on the top.
8. Decorate the top layer with extra mixed berries and garnish with chocolate shavings or flaked almonds for a festive touch (optional).
9. Refrigerate the trifle for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld together.
10. Serve chilled and enjoy this easy, stunning dessert!
