For a more intense flavor, consider macerating the berries with a tablespoon of sugar for about 30 minutes before assembling the trifle. If you don't have fresh raspberries, you can substitute with frozen raspberries, but be sure to thaw and drain them well. To prevent the angel food cake from becoming too soggy, you can lightly toast the cake cubes before assembling the trifle. For a boozy twist, sprinkle a tablespoon or two of orange liqueur or sherry over the cake layers. This trifle is best assembled a few hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld. However, avoid assembling it too far in advance, as the cake may become overly soggy.
