Mother's Day - sugar free trifle


For Mother's Day this year, my mother informed me that she would love it if I would cook her a 3 course meal. My answer was that I would much rather take her out for dinner - but mother (as mothers always do) won the discussion.

For starters, I made my (now famous) Paul Hollywood bread with bruschetta and Camembert. For main, I made veggie toad in the hole with roast potatoes, sweet potato mash, and the rest of the trimmings. Lastly - and much more interestingly in my opinion - pudding!

My mum is intolerant to refined sugar, I first made a sugar free trifle. It was ridiculously easy! First I made a refined sugar and fat free sponge. I recently bought tate and lyle fruit sugar and I wanted to try it out - it was brilliant I definitely recommend it! It's much sweeter, so you hardly need to use any at all! I got the recipe from this site: http://www.jamandclottedcream.co.uk/2012/01/fat-free-and-reduced-sugar-sponge-cake.html but I halved the amount of sugar.

Then I layered the sponge with low fat greek yoghurt and sugarfree jelly. I then topped it with a layer of custard - it was delicious!
