What is Signy's special trifle.

Signy's Special Trifle ,( AKA " If you orrible lot dip a spoon near this, all X Boxes, iPods, iPads netbooks and every single remote in the house will be locked in the boot of the car, indefinitely . For real.") is quite simple :

Fruit in the bottom of the bowl, usually strawberries or raspberries
Cover with one packet of made up sugar free jelly (usually strawb or rasp )
One packet of made up and cooled Asda no sugar custard
(using slightly less water to make up the jelly and custard - it sets better )
One tanker load of whipped cream

no sugar custard?
Why are these things secret?

Ms @Heathenlass , aren't you forgetting a wee something?

We have another fridge photo (amazingly clean, and neat, and... kind of surreal...) but nevertheless, another lovely fridge photo...

So cough up. More underwear.

(Like the mask, by the way. When do you wear it?)

Just seen this thread again but haven't read it all so sorry if I'm duplicating information. It annoys me that Hartleys don't label jellies clearly with regards to veggie or not. I searched the internet and found different forums where members had found out and divulged which were suitable for vegetarians. However the posts were from years ago so I emailed Hartleys and received a reply as follows: (some aren't the sugar free/no added sugar)

My next email will ask for a v to be added to the appropriate labels. I presume it's all down to cost.

I have only found this in Asda, nowhere else for some strange reason ! It's instant custard though, not the "proper" kind. But at least it's custard

No I'm not hartley's jellies. I posted to say I emailed them to ask them which of their jellies were suitable for vegetarians, because they don't mark their product. I then posted a copy of the reply they emailed to me, listing the jellies.

Never noticed it. Our Asda may be too small

Debmcgee · Jul 15, 2014

It's in a light blue sachet like birds custard powder. I only noticed it the other day because I was hunting for it. Never noticed it before!

Thanks Deb probably my fault, I didn't realise you could still get birds custard powder.

They both say "made up as directed."

Avocado Sevenfold · Jul 15, 2014

I've made low carb custard (egg yolks, cream, vanilla, fake sugar). It's not great, but ok when buried in a trifle.

Lezzles · Jul 16, 2014

Jusr read this thread from start to finish and it made me chuckle.....out loud......sitting at my desk at work.

not having the most successful day today, didnt sleep well last night and tiredness has made me forgetful, i only just remembered to pick up my pork and salad for lunch but forgot anything for breaksfast and most importantly forgot jelly!!

BUT what do i spy at the bottom of the fridge in the canteen just, 1 forgotten pot of Hartleys sugar free strawberry Jelly!! Feel like i've won the lottery.

So, how much jelly?
