Creating Golden Syrup and Custard Trifle is manageable if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Custard: If using homemade custard, prepare it according to your recipe. Allow it to cool completely.

2. Whip the Cream: In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form.

3. Slice the Cake: Cut the sponge cake into even layers or cubes.

4. Layer the Ingredients: In a large trifle bowl or individual serving glasses, start by layering the sponge cake at the bottom.

5. Add Custard: Pour a layer of cooled custard over the sponge cake.

6. Drizzle Golden Syrup: Generously drizzle golden syrup on top of the custard layer.

7. Add Fruits: Layer fresh fruits on top of the syrup, followed by a generous layer of whipped cream.

8. Repeat Layers: Continue layering in this order—sponge cake, custard, golden syrup, fruits, and whipped cream—until the bowl is filled.

9. Finish with Whipped Cream: Top the final layer with whipped cream and drizzle more golden syrup on top.

10. Chill: Refrigerate the trifle for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and set.
