English Berry Trifle

This English berry trifle layers pound cake, fresh strawberries, and a bright lemon curd, all topped with clouds of whipped cream. It's a dessert that requires some patience, as it needs ample time to chill and allow the flavors to meld. The lemon curd is made from scratch, cooked until it reaches a thick, spoon-coating consistency, providing a tart counterpoint to the sweet berries and cake. While the active prep is relatively quick, plan for several hours of refrigeration to let everything set properly.
