Mango Lychees Trifle



This is a refreshing summer trifle.  This is one of our favourite at Christmas time when mangoes are in abundance.

Ingredient (serves 6)
¾  cup custard
½ cup whipped cream
1 packet of pineapple flavoured jelly
½ mango, diced into 2cm cubes
12 lychees, peeled and deseeded (use canned if fresh ones are not available)
½ sponge cake, cut into 3 cm cubes
splashes of alcohol eg. Malibu, I used Madeira in these ones
3 strawberries halves as garnish

Method:
1.          Make the jelly the night before.
2.          To assemble, first place a layer of cake, splash on the alcohol, sprinkle the fruits, pour a layer of custard, then scoop in a tbsp of whipped cream.
3.          Repeat the layering.
4.          Top with the strawberries.
