My attempt at the Platinum Jubilee pudding.
It looks a bit odd on top as the white chocolate shards stuck to the paper & broke as I tried to lift them off.
I was very underwhelmed by the thought of it but in actual fact it did taste very nice & went down very well.
Would I be bothered making it again, definitely not!
I do like a trifle but the ordinary raspberry….I’m not over keen on jelly in a trifle either…will be easier & nicer!
Well done you - glad you enjoyed the eating !! I am not a fan of trifles unless they are individual ones . I hate the messy look of it when it is spooned from the dish !!
@beryl I know what you mean Beryl, this looked messy. I have put a good helping in a container to give to a neighbour down the road but I did try & put it in nicely but it’s messy…I don’t think he will mind though!
Well done it does look tasty.. Why is it the Jubilee trifle?.. special recipe created for this year celebration?.. I prefer Tirimasu to trifle at Christmas time..
Now that looks impressive! Was this the original recipe or the cheat version. Even the cheat version when I read it was rather involved. I don’t like cooking particularly, so what I need is a company to mass produce these! 🤣🤣
@carole_sandford It was the cheats version in the fact that I bought the lemon Swiss roll & the amaretti biscuits oh & the custard was homemade but Birds….I only made it that way as the other sort was supposedly a bit soft to support the biscuits etc. I made the coulis too. Didn’t take that long but wasn’t any better than an normal trifle really.
@julzmaioro There was a nationwide competition for the jubilee pudding Julz. Loads of entries whittled down to five. The last five made their puddings on tv & was judged by Mary Berry, Duchess of Cornwall & Monica Galletti.
This trifle won. The original took hours & cost £43 for twenty servings. Good choice as it can be adapted to make it how you want ….some of the other puddings were quite difficult I would think.
Well done on making the effort Pat. It looks very tempting. I laughed when I read read about your chocolate shards. I don't like jelly in a trifle either.

When I make a trifle I use raspberries and add gelatine to the juice to set it - makes me want to do it again, thinking about it!
