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!

Fresh Peach Pie Recipe

My family likes to visit Lyman Orchards pick-your-own orchard and gather some fresh, ripe peaches and when we do I like to try my hand at making a Peach Raspberry Pie recipe.

There's always a family-friendly event going on at Lyman's in Middlefield, Connecticut- Winterfest, hot air balloon rides, cookout! Plus the fresh fruits and baked goods in the Apple Barrel market are yummy too.

Now that my daughter and her family have moved from the burbs out to Petticoat Junction, I also pass many a local farm stand along the way to visit them.

Fruit Pie


I like fresh berries when they're in season and also make a mean cobbler.  I thought the addition of the big red berries would add some color to the fruit filling.  Also, I added some mace in addition to the cinnamon and nutmeg spices.

Did you know that Connecticut is known as the "Nutmeg" state?
Unofficially (but popularly) Connecticut is also known as "The Nutmeg State".

The nutmeg connection to Connecticut may come from its sailors returning from voyages with nutmeg (which in the 18th and 19th centuries was a very valuable spice in New England). It is also said to come from Connecticut Yankee peddlers who would sell small carved nobs of wood shaped to look like nutmeg to the local Native Americans and other unsuspecting customers.

Peach Pie with Strawberries


Everyone's heard of Georgia Peaches, but this is my adaptation of a traditional Connecticut recipe. Treat your family or dinner guests to this summer fruit recipe idea for casual entertaining and serve it as a fresh fruit dessert and top with your favorite homemade ice cream, whipped cream, Cool Whip or non-dairy topping for a happy ending to your meal!

My mom was a SAHM, and was much better at making her own pastry pie crust. I, sadly, resort to using a pre-made frozen double pie crust that can be rolled out. Fortunately, my charming son-in-law is a peach himself, and will eat mostly anything that I bake!
