Q: Is anyone making any Christmas deserts this year?

I'm looking to make a trifle but at 60 a pop for a small tub of cream have decided to give it a miss. Also struggled to get my hands on decent jelly.

 

Any alternative, China workable, solutions would be much appreciated.

what kind of cream is that, 60 sounds a bit much

IrvineWelsh:

The whipping variety.

 

Seems a bit steep to me as well but so far has been the only one I have found.

I used this one (brand, not tb-shop) last xmas for a different dessert, hand-whipped it like a teenage boy. 

We have a shop in town that seel this for about 30 rmb, a shop that specializes in imported foods that has yet to discover how to properly rip of stupid foreigners.

not to be a dick,,,,,,, but are u sure u want to degrade British culture? One cannot have a Trifle here; so be it. I simply mean that to concoct a 'China' alternative to a proper Trifle is to launch oneself upon the slow, slippery slide of 'multiculturalism'.  

 

Christmas and China mix like the proverbial Oil&Water. 

IrvineWelsh:

Bang to rights, you have a fair point.

 

I give up...screw it, I'll just pour some brandy on a plate of  Breadtalk scones and be done with it...

giving up, isn't that adopting too much of China?
