4. Lemon meringue trifle
Speaking of being deliciously different, this lemon meringue trifle knocks it out of the park. You soak the sponge cake in sherry, limoncello, dark rum or orange juice (your choice) and layer the lemon curd and cream and meringue on top. If you're worried about how decadent it is, you can crème fraîche or yoghurt instead of cream to cut the richness.
