Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven according to the directions on your cake mix package. In a large mixing bowl, prepare the batter using the cake mix, eggs, oil, and water as specified. Mix until smooth and well blended, ensuring there are no lumps.
- Divide your prepared cake batter equally into four separate bowls. Add pink, yellow, green, and blue food coloring to each bowl, stirring gently until you've achieved vibrant pastel shades.
- Pour each colored batter into the greased baking pans, spreading it evenly to create thin layers. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, remove the cake layers from the oven and let them cool in the pans for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer the cakes onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the two boxes of instant vanilla or white chocolate pudding mix with 4 cups of cold milk. Beat until the mixture is thick and smooth, about 2 minutes.
- Once your pudding has set, gently fold in the thawed whipped topping with a spatula.
- In a trifle dish or a large glass bowl, start layering the dessert by placing a layer of cake cubes at the bottom. Top with a generous layer of the pudding mixture and then a layer of whipped topping.
- Carefully decorate the top of your assembled Easter Trifle Dessert with mini chocolate eggs, pastel sprinkles, and edible flowers if desired.
- Refrigerate your Easter Trifle Dessert for at least 1 hour before serving.

Notes
Assemble your trifle up to 24 hours in advance. Use a trifle dish to showcase colorful layers. Add toppings right before serving for best texture and appearance.
