Instructions

In a large chilled bowl, whisk the instant white chocolate pudding mix with cold whole milk for two minutes until smooth; refrigerate for at least 10 minutes to set.
Place a tight, even layer of angel food cake cubes into the bottom of a 3.25-quart trifle dish.
Spread half of the set pudding over the cake, using a spatula to ensure it reaches the edges of the glass.
Press strawberry slices against the glass for presentation, then add a level layer of strawberries and blueberries over the pudding.
Evenly spread 8 ounces of whipped topping over the fruit layer to seal it.
Repeat the layering process with the remaining cake, pudding, berries, and whipped topping.
Decorate the top with a concentric pattern of fruit and refrigerate for a minimum of one hour before serving.

Notes

For the best visual results, use an offset spatula to push the cream and pudding layers flush against the glass. Ensure your berries are completely dry after washing to prevent excess moisture from compromising the pudding’s thickness. This dessert is best served cold, using a long spoon to scoop through all layers simultaneously.
