Quote: Yes, we have fruit pies too. Bilberry, winberry, rhubarb, cherry, apple, blackberry and apple, gooseberry, blackcurrant etc. They come as large plate sized or individual pies for one.

I have never had bilberry, winberry or gooseberry. I don't even know where to find these in the store. We are so deprived.... We only have cherry, strawberry, blackberry & apple. I have had trifle before, but it's made with chocolate, pudding and cake mix.
How about Russian tea biscuits? I just found a place who makes these and they are soooo good.

the trifle I grew up with was only served at christmas and contained, lady fingers, sherry, jello with fruit cocktail, custard, whipped cream and 100's and 1000's on top.
Is this the trifle you are referring to?
