The best way to serve trifle is to use a large spoon that can reach to the bottom of the trifle dish so you get all of the layers in one serving. However, this recipe has the same ingredients in two different layers, you if you want to keep the bottom layer in tact, you can scoop out the top layer first and then serve the second. Try to spoon the gingerbread trifle onto the serving dishes with the gingerbread first to keep the presentation. The trifle will look best if served in small, glass dishes, but it can also be served in small bowls or plates.
