Reviews
I love the Strawberry Shortcake Trifle and so do my grandson. Actually, he asked for a Strawberry Shortcake Trifle. Plus, I have prepared for other people and they love. This is a great dessert for anytime of the year.
This was a delicious, refreshing dessert. I was hesitant to use that much sugar in the glaze but it was the perfect amount. Was even better the next day. Will make again!
Very good and easy to make. It was well-loved. Will be making this all summer long.
