Toddler Trifle...

With all the cakes I've been making lately there has been a fair bit of excess, for example when I bake cupcakes, etc. With a batch that made 14 cupcakes I took 2 uniced and I decided to make an after dinner dessert for Hudson.....I'm calling it Toddler Trifle.

The ingedients are pictured below:


2 Apples
1/2 cup diced pineapple pieces
2 vanilla cupcakes
1 sachet of Angel Delight Banana custard powder (has no artificial colours, low sugar...etc)
1 sachet of Aeroplane Jelly Tropical (the range that is made of natural colours & flavours and has 25% less sugar that regular jelly)

Method:
1)Make the jelly in a bowl as per the directions on packet (allow setting time)
2)Once jelly has set, make Angel delight as per directions in a separate bowl. This is made in one bowl in 5 minutes.
3)In a saucepan cook apples (peeled, cored & diced) and pineapple together until apple is soft. Loosely mash fruit.
4)put cupcakes into a plastic ziplock back and crush into crumbs.
5)In little toddler serve containers 1/4 fill with cake crumbs then 1/4 with jelly (about 3 teaspoons), 1/4 of fruit mix, then last quarter top with Angel delight.
6)gently stir in container the mix the layers loosely.

Keep in fridge for up to 5 days. (with this in mind I only made 4 portions) there was a bit of jelly and fruit left so I put the excess fruit into ice-cube trays and into the freezer for brekkys, etc. The excess Jelly....well Troy and I had it with some fruit pieces.   :)
