Every now and then I get this great idea for a new recipe. Sometimes it’s a flop and other times it turns out FABULOUS. I’m not trying to toot my own horn, but I get VERY excited when a recipe actually goes to plan and is delicious. This next recipe just happens to be one of those. 🙂
I think I’ll call this one Strawberries and Cream Angel Food Cake Trifle. It’s a perfect summer dessert that isn’t too rich and is creamy and light. It reminds me a bit of Strawberry Shortcake but it’s obviously different since it’s made with Angel Food Cake. I’ll definitely be making this one again and soon because it is SO GOOD! In fact, it’s perfect to bring to your next BBQ because it feed a lot and screams “summertime!”
Here is the recipe for the Strawberries and Cream Angel Food Cake Trifle:
- 1 angel food cake
- 1½ - 2 pints strawberries sliced
- 1 white chocolate pudding box 3.3 oz. size
- 2 cups milk
- 1 COOL WHIP tub Large
- Begin by cutting your angel food cake into 1 inch squares. Set aside.
- Slice all of your strawberries.
- Make the cream mixture by making your pudding as directed on the box. Add the large tub of cool whip and mix well.
- Make the trifle by adding ½ cream mixture to the bottom. Then add your angel food cake squares. Then add your strawberry slices. Top off with the other half of the cream mixture and then a strawberry on top.
- Add more layers by doing ⅓ cream mixture instead. Then add ½ angel food squares, half the strawberries, ⅓ cream mixture and repeating the layers. 🙂
Angel Food Cake – mine was store bought from Target
Sliced strawberries
Start layering the food – first the cream mixture…
Then the cubed angel food cake…
Then the strawberries….
{And top it off with the cream mixture again. I also added a strawberry on top with some angel food cake crumbs}
This trifle was so good and so easy to make. It probably took about 10 minutes total to do everything (which is AWESOME!!)

It really is a favorite dessert of mine now. It’s super easy and is always a hit. 😀
How many would you say this serves? I know about 1 cup of strawberries is a serving, but I didn’t know if that’s how you decided on the strawberry to cake ratio.
I’d say this served about 8-10. 🙂
Looks easy & yummy! In the ingredient list is 2 cups of milk; however, where do you use it in the directions?
It really is yummy and easy!! You use the milk when you make the pudding. 😉 Hope that helps!
Hi. Did you use instant pudding?
Yes. 😉
