Prepare the jelly according to the instructions on the packet by dissolving the jelly powder in 500 milliliters of hot water. Stir well and let it cool slightly before refrigerating it in a shallow dish to set for 2-3 hours.
In a medium saucepan, mix 3 tablespoons of vanilla custard powder with 3 tablespoons of sugar and a little milk to form a smooth paste. Gradually add the rest of the 750 milliliters of milk while stirring to avoid lumps.
Heat the custard mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens to a pudding-like consistency. Remove from heat and let it cool completely at room temperature.
Slice the vanilla sponge cake into even pieces and spread them as the first layer in a trifle dish or a deep glass bowl.
Wash and hull the fresh strawberries, then slice them thinly. Peel and slice the bananas as well.
Layer half of the sliced strawberries and bananas over the sponge cake.
Pour the cooled custard evenly over the fruit layer, spreading it to cover the fruit completely.
Cut the set jelly into cubes and layer it on top of the custard.
Add the remaining sliced fruits as another layer above the jelly.
Spread whipped cream evenly over the fruit layer and smooth the surface with a spatula.
For garnish, sprinkle chopped nuts or chocolate shavings on top, if desired.
Refrigerate the trifle pudding for at least 1-2 hours before serving to allow all the flavors to meld together.
