Equipment

  • large bowl
  • frypan
  • trifle dish

Ingredients
  

Curd and Cream

  • 2 cups luscious lemon curd or bought curd if you prefer
  • 600 ml thickened cream
  • 1 tablespoon icing sugar
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Cake and Custard

  • 1 whole vanilla sponge cake cut into squares
  • 900 g vanilla custard I used Paul’s Double Thick Custard in French Vanilla

  • 8 whole passionfruit pulp used in cream and garnishing

Toppings

  • 1 packet meringue kisses
  • 0.5 cup coconut flakes toasted

Instructions
 

Method

  • Make the lemon curd and refrigerate until cool.
  • To make the passionfruit cream, combine cream, vanilla and icing sugar in a large bowl and beat on high speed until very thick. Gently stir through the pulp of 5 passionfruit.
  • Toast your coconut flakes in a frypan over a medium-high heat until golden brown and fragrant.
  • Cut up the mangoes into long slices, discarding the skin and pit.
  • To assemble the trifle, place an even layer of sponge cake squares in the bottom of the dish.
  • Top with vanilla custard and approximately two-thirds of the mango slices.
  • Crush approximately 10-12 mini meringue kisses and sprinkle over the top of the mango.
  • Top with approximately two-thirds of the passionfruit cream mixture and the pulp of an extra passionfruit.
  • Gently spoon on the lemon curd, taking care not to mix it with the cream.
  • Allow to set in the fridge.
  • Just prior to serving, spoon the remaining passionfruit cream onto the curd and then top with remaining mango slices, passionfruit pulp (I left a whole passionfruit) and toasted coconut flakes.
