Ingredients:

  • 1 box of coconut-infused cake mix (or your favorite cake mix)
  • 1 package of instant coconut cream pudding (avoid using other flavors)
  • 3 ripe mangoes, sliced
  • 1 1/2 cups of fresh kiwi slices
  • 1 1/2 – 2 cups of diced fresh papaya (or 6 ounces of canned, drained)
  • 1 container of chilled whipped coconut cream
  • 1 small jar of lychees, cut into small pieces
  • 1/2 cup of toasted macadamia nuts (optional)
  • 1/4 cup of passion fruit drizzle

Instructions:

  1. Start by baking the cake according to the instructions on the box. Allow it to cool completely before using it in your trifle.
  2. Once the cake has cooled, cut it into bite-sized pieces. Set them aside.
  3. Prepare the coconut cream pudding mixture according to the package instructions. Be sure not to let it set completely, as you want it to be slightly pourable.
  4. In a large, transparent trifle bowl or a fancy serving dish, begin layering your tropical delight trifle.
  5. Start with a layer of cake pieces as your base.
  6. Next, spoon half of the prepared coconut cream pudding over the cake layer.
  7. Follow with a layer of sliced mangoes, kiwi, and diced papaya.
  8. Add a generous dollop of chilled whipped coconut cream over the fruit layer.
  9. Sprinkle the lychee pieces evenly on top of the coconut cream.
  10. Drizzle a bit of passion fruit sauce for a tropical burst of flavor.
  11. If you desire a bit of crunch, sprinkle some toasted macadamia nuts on top as an optional finishing touch.
  12. Repeat the layers using the remaining ingredients in the same order.
  13. Chill your tropical delight trifle until you’re ready to serve, allowing all the delightful flavors to meld together.

Enjoy your Tropical Delight Trifle, a unique and refreshing twist on a classic dessert!
