In a large trifle dish or individual serving glasses, begin layering the ingredients: Start with a layer of lamington cubes, followed by a layer of jelly cubes, some of the chopped Cherry Ripe, and a handful of fresh cherries.
Step 7
Pour a layer of custard over the top, ensuring it fully covers the previous layer.
