These mini trifle cups are ALMOST too cute to eat. These cuties are made with lemon pound cake, homemade whipped cream and fresh raspberries and strawberries. I bought these darling little disposable mini trifle cups from Amazon. The lemon poundcake can take a little time to make, but if you're in a time crunch, you can easily swap out the poundcake with a store-bought angel food cake or something similar!
