How do you make trifle?

It's hubby's birthday today  and he loves trifle, so I am goong to make a small one.

I have jam roll cake, sliced peaches, custard, jelly and cream. Oh and some plonk.

arrrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

so is it fruit then custard or custard then fruit 

 

will the fruit make the cake soggy?

 

if I put custard first the fruit will sink through it anyway won't it?

 

 

man I hate this domestic goddess type stuff

hahahaha thanks DDB, now I'm really confused Smiley LOL

 

I always make it in the order I have written, I like the custard on top of the fruit NOT the other way around

i layer mine

 

Some jam roll, then some tin fruit, then some banana, then some custard then repeat again.

I pour the cooled jelly on after ive finished the layers
