Plant-based Strawberry Trifle — Just Wholefoods
A British family favourite, with a modern plant-based twist from Just Wholefoods – and the perfect recipe to share with customers ahead of garden party season.
“Made using our very own Strawberry Jelly and delicious Vanilla Custard Powder, these are not just alternatives, this is food for everyone,” comments brand owner Fliss Newland, adding that Raspberry, Tropical or Lemon Jelly would make fun variations on this classic dessert.
The recipe serves six people and requires 25 minutes of prep time.
Ingredients
500ml plant-based double cream
500ml plant-based milk
300g plant-based sponge cake

3. Equally divide 300g of strawberries and 200g of raspberries and place these amongst the sponge.

5. Divide the jelly mixture between the six glasses, pouring it over the sponge and fruit.
6. Press the sponge and fruit mixture into the bottom of the glass, to blend with the jelly, and place in the fridge until set.

9. Take the glasses out of the fridge, pour over the custard mix and place back in fridge until custard has cooled.
