This is a truly special trifle that everyone will love. Making the sponge base and lemon curd means you can add your favourite festive flavours like mincemeat or clementine. The results are worth the effort. Make a day ahead if you prefer.

Preparation

Cape gooseberries make excellent jams, jellies and purées, can be used in exotic fruit salads, pavlovas or roulades, or simmered in water with a little sugar and used in fruit pies or crumbles.
