Trifle Bowl Desserts




Strawberry Peach Trifle


I made this yummy Strawberry Peach Trifle once for my charming son-in-law's birthday.  Trifle Bowl Desserts are so easy to make.  He enjoys Angel Food Cake, so I always try to incorporate the sponge cake into a birthday cake recipe for him.

One of the gals in my office is always bringing in Trifle to celebrate special occasions, and I've been gathering quite a collection of trifle dessert recipes on my Pinterest Boards for pinspiration!

This fresh fruit recipe was just something I happened to throw together in a pinch yesterday, after I got finished scraping wallpaper from my upstairs bathroom, which I'm redecorating.

But now the real story begins!

I found a great elegant Trifle bowl to replace my smaller Trifle bowl that I've had for years.  The new one is quite heavy, even when empty.

Peach Strawberry Trifle Dessert


Both my grandson and son-in-law have summer birthdays. Years ago we celebrated with a family birthday party for Slugger on Saturday, and a joint party to finish the leftovers on Sunday.

I put together the fruit trifle and had it in a freezer bag on my lap in the car.  As my husband backed out of the driveway, it tipped over, all about 4 pounds of it. A new Summer Olympic Sport was born!  Catch The Trifle Bowl Desserts Save - and I won a Gold Medal!

In the process, I broke and dislocated the joint in my pinky finger on my right hand, which happens to be my dominant (read - mouse) hand.  Both hubby and youngest daughter voted right then and there to eat dinner first, and worry about me going to the ER or Walk-In Clinic later, after dinner. So after a visit to the Emergency Room later that night; some x-rays, a huge long needle as a pain blocker, and a realignment of my finger from a 45 degree angle I was in a splint for 6 weeks and had an appointment with my Orthopaedist!

He's actually turning out to be my buddy since he put together my broken wrist when I fell off a scooter when on vacation in Bermuda!

 But it didn't stop me from crocheting my handmade Dish Cloths for my Moomettes Crochet shop!

Pick-Your-Own Berries | Blueberry Raspberry Cobbler | Crisp Recipe

Round up the family and head out to the pick-your-own farms!  It's blueberry picking season now!  Blueberry and Raspberry Cobbler are some of my family's favorite comfort-food desserts - it's super easy to make.  Cobblers are even better warm from the oven and served with your favorite ice cream!  Serve as dessert or for brunch.

Blueberry Raspberry Cobbler




We have quite a few pick-your-own berry farm stands here in New England and always had fun taking the kids and grandchildren out to the fields!  We used to go to Roses Berry Farm (now closed for good) in Glastonbury, CT or Lyman Orchards in Middlefield, CT. Connecticut has a ton of pick-your-own farms to choose from.  You can check your state agricultural website for lists, or visit your local farmer's markets.

I usually freeze blueberries or raspberries in freezer bags to use throughout the winter months for baking, or to give to the grandkids as snacks. Berries are so good in Smoothies, too! 

Of course you could make this with any type of your favorite berries or canned berries. It's great with Maine Blackberries too! Total Comfort Food
