Note:

The first recipe for trifle was published in 1596 in The Good Huswife’s Jewell. The recipe at that time consisted only of thick cream flavoured with sugar, ginger and rose water. It wasn’t until 60 years later that custard, eggs and alcohol were added to the recipe. However, as it happens, many variations and forms of this tasty dessert have been created since its birth. So don’t be surprised if you find several variations under the same name (with custard, without custard, with alcohol, with ice cream …)
