We love a good old fashioned traditional Scottish Trifle just the way my mum would make it and its so easy to make too! Starting with the sponge and jam layer we then add in some tinned fruit, jelly and custard and top the whole thing off with whipped cream, sprinkles and cherries.
A traditional Scots trifle was a rather boozey affair indeed and was traditionally known as a Typsy Laird. The older recipes that I have found didn't contain any jelly and fruit which must have been a later addition. I haven't added booze to this trifle but you can add booze in if you wish and the instructions are in the video above on how to do so and in the recipe in the blog post.

Thank you so much (The Wee Larder) for this lovely straightforward trifle recipe. Honestly, I had been trailing through loads of fancy "trifle" recipes which purported to be traditional. Only to find they were not - as they included items such as lemongrass, chocolate and even bananas, as main ingredients. Your trifle was exactly what I was looking for - especially the jelly and sponge base. This was the trifle I had enjoyed, savoured and have fond memories of, as a kid growing up in Newcastle years ago. Many thanks.

Thank you I am so glad you liked it, I really try to keep my Scottish recipes as close to the traditions as possible :-) I have fond memories of eating trifle this way, take care Angie :-) xx

This is how my mother made trifle, even with the fruit cocktail tin... with one exception which you will find a big help. Make Birds custard from the powder, a bit thicker than normal, and chill it for half an hour before topping the jelly with it. Using pouring custard has the problem that it will never set and you will always get this mess with the custard going everywhere. It is really worth making the effort in this case.

@theweelarder4020 Год назад

Sounds like a great tip, I think my Mum used the powder too. I'll have to ask her, will defo do another video with a thicker custard. Take Care, Angie x

I was wondering why all trifle recipes didn't have jelly in them, while I know nothing else. Then I saw your video and it made sense, my grandmother was Scottish, so I'm used to Scottish trifle 😂 THIS is trifle

@theweelarder4020 2 года назад

Auw thats so lovely! I'm always so pleased when my recipes remind people of their family traditions. We also have another Typsy Laird trifle style dish in Scotland with just custard, sponge, a lot of booze, bananas or other fruit and some whipped cream with sliced almonds. The trifle with the jelly is the one I know from my childhood and is probably most popular. I hope you enjoy it, if you ever have any recipe requests drop me a line at info@angiemilne.com Take Care, Angie xx

My grandmother was Irish and use jelly in her trifle.

@ruthm3813 Год назад

We never had jelly in our trifles, though we enjoy those with jelly in just as much. Just soaked the trifle sponges(cake etc) sliced and spread with jam with the tinned fruit juice just as you did. My mum did use sherry too to soak the sponges, but as I never liked the taste, I had a separate one made😅.Plus my mum always used a little cooked apples in and amongst the the sponges and added fruit. That is always nice. Make Birds custard a bit thicker and leave to cool, not solid, and the custard makes nice trails down any gaps between the sponges, fruit and bowl sides. Sometimes I add a little of the cream into the custard. It sets more solid when cold and easier to spoon out. Then whipped cream on top of course. I love how there are so many variations with trifle making, even packet trifle which we used quite a bit when camping(and at home) in the 80's. Very interesting to hear and see the different versions. I love them all, apart from alcoholic ones.

@elisabethhopson5639 Год назад

I always buy madeira cake for my trifles. My Mum used to put redcurrant jelly in with the sponge layer, which gives even more flavour. I have tried using cherries in the fruit layer and it works well too. Your custard just needs a quick cook in a saucepan as it should be able to "hold" itself, without being too firm. If you cook the custard a little, it makes it easier to put the cream on top. I always decorate the top with the same fruit that is inside, plus sliced almonds and sprinkles. I tried a pear trifle with green jelly once. The family has never forgiven me since! You cannot have Christmas without a beautiful trifle - just utterly unthinkable.

@theweelarder4020 2 года назад

Hello Hayley your very welcome, in the old fashioned typsy laird recipes (traditional scottish trifle) they didn't use jelly too so maybe he prefers the older version. Just sponge, booze (lots of) and custard. I don't use alcohol either and a drop of ginger ale sounds like a good idea. Enjoy your trifle and have a lovely Christmas. Angie xx

@kamauwikeepa7308 Год назад

I trickle my jelly through the trifle cake to look streaky and let set. I also trickle syrup from the fruit making sure it's moist not runny. Then I pour creamy custard and allow that to trickle although not as runny as the syrup, then top with cream or some other creamy mixture of your choice. This gives it an attractive appearance from outside and top with fruit. We only have strawberries in abundance at this time, but I mixed them with whatever is available.

@sangeetabocki 6 месяцев назад

It is one of my favourite summer desserts. The technical problem with setting jelly like the way shown is the absorption of custard in rest of the layers. Cake should be well soaked as only then it would chill better in the refrigerator. You could set the jelly apart give it a good whisk after it has set or dice it to incorporate with fruits layer. I still feel that if custard is not that thick it goes till the deepest layer and the flavours gets mixed up completely, not like as shown where custard is coming separate and the other components separate. All the layers need to come together as same pudding. Topping can have cream or if you do not want to make it heavy then simply avoid the layer of cream and top the custard with your favourite toppings ranging from dried fruits to berries or chocolates. You can also avoid jam in sponge as that will make it way too sweet. So, calorie conscious can adjust the recipe to their liking.

I have to say about the jelly I've always used the red colors but one year I made it with the lime jelly (my favorite) and it was the worst trifle I made , it just didn't look right.

Good grief - what a mess! You just need thicker custard so that it makes a solid layer, - then you'll be able to serve it from the dish to the bowl all in one piece. Either make it with birds custard powder but use a bit more powder than recommended on the label, or if you want to use ready made custard, mix it up with some cornflour disolved in milk and bring it to the boil so that it thickens.

Are you gonna eat it or hang it on the wall. It is a beautifully "MESSY" dessert not a work of art and she has made a great trifle. I am salivating just watching the clip. YUM😋

Custard should not be to thick. I use red and green jelly and sherrie. Bottom layer cake, fruit, jellie, custard. Second layer cake, fruit, jellie custard. Lastly cream. If you use two layers of cake that helps to absorb the thinner custard. I’m a South African and that’s how my morher and now me made it. My favourite desert.

Oh no not Jelly again authentic trifles do not use JELLY where the usage of it comes from who knows but it causes the real taste to come through YUK are there any without the sugary JELLY

A simple old Scottish typsy laird recipe doesn't use Jelly in the old old recipes but our folks and Granny always used jelly. My kids love jelly! Make it without jelly if you like it that way, take care, Angie x
