Can I use frozen berries?

Absolutely! Just thaw and drain them REALLY well - I spread them on paper towels for 30 minutes. The color might bleed a little, but the taste is still fantastic.

How far in advance can I assemble it?

Sweet spot is 4-24 hours before serving. Any longer and the cake gets too soft. But hey, leftovers (if you have any!) still taste amazing on day two.

What if I can't find angel food cake?

No panic! Pound cake or even ladyfingers work in a pinch. Just tear them into rustic chunks like you would with angel food.

Can I make individual trifles?

Yes! Use clear cups for adorable single servings. Kids love making their own mini versions - it's like edible arts and crafts!
