trifle - crap / not crap

[zenie]

as long as it doesn't have sherry in it

I don't like sherry ones either.

I love jelly and milk jelly in trifles

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

tbh, I think I'm kidding myself when I say I like trifle, blatantly what I actually like is the custard and the cream. The jelly stuff is just boring necessity.

If a bowl of custard and cream was socially acceptable, I would just eat that.

i like all of it. although i do save the cream until last.

preferably with lots of hundreds and thousands for the contrast in textures

What's this anti-sherry brigade going on about? I hope the rest of the trifles they ever eat will be shit.

Yes good call.

Chocolate trifle is nice, but I don't think it really counts as real trifle.

 

[foo]

mega crappo.

it has jelly in it.

Nor does one without sherry

That's what I thought foo, but if the jelly layer is really thin and there's jam in the bottom too it's lush

Not even whiskey trifle? I'm sure I've had a whiskey trifle.


There are always reduced trifles in Tesco. I might buy one today. But only eat the cream and custard. I don't want to live in denial anymore.

[Orang Utan]

That's rank too, but it has coffee in it, not booze

 

[Griff]

Have you been on 'Come Dine With Me'?

Sherry's only put in there so prim and proper people who don't drink can partake on the sly

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Have you been on 'Come Dine With Me'?

No, why?

 

[electrogirl]

There was one episode of Come Dine With Me where this old woman put so much sherry in the trifle that everyone was totally wankered half way through eating it.

 

[danny la rouge]

Trifle is good, I like trifle, but I'd happily bin the jelly for more cream and custard

Good trifle doesn't have jelly. There's no need for it.

Sponge soaked in juices & booze, fruit, custard, cream. Flaked chocolate or choice of topping. Jelly can piss off.

 

[jimadore]

Sherry good ,Trifle bad.

I find that hard to believe

 

[electrogirl]

I find that hard to believe

I exaggerate for my own amusement.

 

[dodgepot]

yeah you're right - there's no booze.

except for the booze bit.

I've got a bit pissed off a brandy chocolate mousse before

Tiramisu with booze in it is zabaglione

 

[electrogirl]

sometimes, more often than not it has liqueur in it i thought.
