Trifle

Cultural Context

Trifle has its roots in England, dating back to the 16th century, where it was originally a simple dessert made with cream, sugar, and flavorings. Over time, it evolved into the layered dessert we know today, symbolizing celebration and indulgence at gatherings. Modern variations include different fruits, flavors, and even alternative spirits, making it a beloved dessert in many households worldwide.
