Step‑by‑Step Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8-inch round cake pan.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until evenly mixed.
  • In a separate bowl, beat eggs with granulated sugar until pale and fluffy. Add vanilla extract and melted butter and mix until combined.
  • Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture with almond flour until just combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice into cubes.
  • In a large trifle bowl, layer the sponge cake cubes at the bottom.
  • Add a layer of fresh raspberries on top of the sponge cubes.
  • Spoon in the vanilla custard over the raspberries.
  • Add whipped cream on top of the custard layer.
  • Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with whipped cream.
  • Garnish with toasted almond slices and optional mint leaves. Chill for at least one hour before serving.

Notes

For best results, use fresh ingredients and allow the layers to chill before serving.
