Ingredients
Method
1.Combine 1 cup (250ml) of the sparkling shiraz and sugar in a small saucepan. Gradually sprinkle over gelatine powder, allowing it to become wet before adding more; stir to combine.
2.Transfer to medium heat; stir until gelatine has dissolved. Remove from heat; add remaining shiraz. Transfer to trifle bowl; add half the strawberries and blackberries. Chill for 2 hours or until set.
3.After jelly has set, it’s time to assemble. Place panettone pieces in a medium bowl. Sprinkle with sherry; toss to coat.
4.Beat thickened cream and icing sugar until firm peaks form; fold in custard. Spoon two-thirds of the custard mixture over jelly, then arrange sherry-soaked panettone cubes around the edge.
5.Serve the trifle topped with he remaining custard mixture, blackberries, strawberries and orange zest. Dust with the extra icing sugar.
Not suitable to freeze or microwave. You can use orange-flavoured liqueur instead of the sherry, if you prefer. The trifle can be made one day ahead up to the end of Step 3; store, covered in the fridge.
