I have been craving light, lemony/orange flavored desserts. I found this one in a low-fat cookbook. It is a trifle with lemon pudding, angel food cake and mandarin oranges.

Sounds like a good dessert that can be thrown together really fast for a 'spur of the moment' dinner with friends/family... and a pretty one too! I bet you could use Triple-Sec orange liquor too. Thanks.


Sounds easy and delicious. This would be great for citrus lovers, and being lowfat is a great bonus. Great recipe, thanks for sharing.


Sounds delightful to me. I love citrusy and light desserts. Great post - I'm bookmarking to try. Yummm....thanks so much!


Sounds wonderful Ruskingirl! This gives me an idea to use this recipe with my lemon curd recipe. Thanks for the post and the idea!


I was thinking lemon curd too - I like everything as lemony as possible. And Trader Joe's does an apricot-orange combination that would be great in this (marmalade is not my favorite). So glad spring is finally coming; I know this will be a hit as a warm weather dessert. But something tells me it's not South Beach-friendly!


I did make this on Sunday and it turned out delicious and beautiful. A real keeper and it certainly deserves a high 5. Thanks, hon - great recipe!
