  • Spread half of the chopped angel food cake evenly over the bottom of the trifle dish.
  • Scatter a layer of hulled and sliced strawberries over the cake.
  • Gently spread half of the prepared pudding over the strawberries.

  • Finish by decorating the top with extra berries in a pretty pattern.
