This makes a great summer dessert. I originally modified this dessert to include shortbread cake instead of angel food cake. It's much better this way and gives it a true strawberry shortcake taste.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

Trifles are a super easy dessert to prepare and we loved this summertime strawberry shortcake one. It's almost too pretty to eat. Layered with fresh strawberries, cake, and a creamy vanilla cream, each bite is delicious.
