raspberry-glam trifle
Mrs. Lilien | Wednesday, September 28, 2011 
Desperate for a dazzlingly decadent dessert revival? Look no further than my sumptuous raspberry-glam trifle! Nothing screams nostalgic quite like this delicious showstopper; the ultimate grand finale after dinner chart topper! This trifle is a great alternative to something predictable and chocolaty; that, and the presentation is rather resplendent when executed properly. At your next formal dinner gathering you ought to place my trifle on the table, then proceed to watch your guests lick their glittering plates all gluttonously and grateful!
Mrs. Lilien's Raspberry-Glam Trifle:
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 cup seedless raspberry jam
4 cups raspberries
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup mascarpone
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 1/2 pounds pound cake
1/4 cup gold edible glitter
DIRECTIONS
- In a small saucepan, bring 1/2-cup sugar, 1/4-cup water, and lemon juice to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar, 1 to 2 minutes. Let cool.
- In a small bowl, combine jam with 3 cups raspberries, mashing slightly. In a large bowl, whip cream, mascarpone, vanilla and 2 tablespoons sugar to stiff peaks.
- Slice pound cake 3/4 inch thick; brush both sides of slices with lemon syrup.
- Fit 1/3 of slices snugly in the bottom of a 4-quart trifle dish or other glass bowl, trimming edges if necessary. Gently spread top of layer with 1/3 of raspberry mixture, and then 1/3 of whipped cream. Repeat to make two more layers; garnish with remaining cup raspberries and sprinkle with gold edible glitter. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Where can you find the gold edible glitter?!?!?
Love this! I am a little scared of the edible glitter, but It would be lovely a top a dessert like this. I would love to see photos of the actual dessert!
I would feel BEYOND fancy if I made this. BEYOND.
BRILLIANT! I never would have thought to add glitter to my dessert. Can't wait to try this!

right. edible gold glitter. this is what ALL my meals are missing. smoked salmon with gold glitter, spaghetti with gold glitter, stir-fry with gold glitter.... you get the idea. :) x
This has the be the most glamorous homemade dessert I've seen! Must make this
Being English trifle is always our dessert of choice for the holidays. My grandma would always top it with silver dragees. I wonder what she would think of edible glitter. I just might need to stir things up this year!
Hi, my name is Stephanie and I just started a blog. I'm a complete novice when it comes to blogging, so I wanted to ask if I could use the gorgeous picture above for one of my posts first. I will, of course, credit it back to this site. Please email me if I can't, thank you!

I'm making this for dinner to go with my outfit!
I can't WAIT to make this at my annual dessert competition at work- I know at least I'll win for overall presentation! :) This is brilliant! :) Mrs.O

I made this for Valentine's Dessert and it was a HUGE hit! Fabulous - thanks! Cheers.
