This beautiful fresh fruit Trifle is one of my favorite dessert for the Holidays! The wine cake layers blend perfectly with the vanilla yogurt, the rhum and the fresh fruit so that it tastes decadently delicious (the rhum-embued cake reminds me of a French "baba au rhum" and the vanilla yogurt becomes so thick you'd think it's heavy cream!). It is absolutely spectacular as a ... Read More »
