Lemon Blueberry Trifle

This lemon-blueberry trifle is a stunning yet simple dessert that features layers of lemon-flavored pastry cream, store-bought angel food cake and fresh blueberries. A clear glass trifle bowl with tall sides is the best way to showcase the layers, but any clear glass bowl will work. Fresh-picked blueberries are hard to beat in this easy dessert, but feel free to use any seasonal fruit you may have on hand.
