1. Cut the cake into small slices or chunks or break up your cake with your fingers.
2. Use a trifle bowl or a see-through glass bowl.
3. First place the cake in the middle bottom of the bowl arranging the sliced strawberry flat inside the bowl so you can see them through the glass from the outside.

5. Scoop some jam on the cake first, then a light layer of pudding whipped cream then more cake.
6. Repeat the layering,  until all the ingredients are gone saving some cream blueberries and strawberries for the top for garnish.
