Iv just eaten a Liquiorice Trifle from M&S.....sounds a bit wierd but was really quite nice,,

YUK love liquorice but cant imagine a trifle! use to LUV liquorice wood 2 a penny after the war when I was at primary school and the local sweet shop sold it. Some was very sweet but some downright bitter nevertheless IF i had a penny thats what I bought

Shirley, I am the opposite. I love trifle, but darn't eat it often, and dislike licquiorice. I am the same with aniseed. When I was about 8, I had some aniseed balls from the sweet shop, and a few days later was in hospital with appendisitice. So that memory still stays with me. Couldn't drink Pernod, if me life depended on it.

Well ..in the words of Harry Hill ..."I like Liquorice but then again I like

trifle"...but together..........Fight!!! ;O) xx

Well Iv looked at this trifle before when iv been in Marks and thought,,YUKK!!

I like Licquiorice (sp) ,,especially Allsorts.

I think what made it taste ok was the fruit creamy stuff in it,, I was really suprised how non-yukky it was,,,lol

Sounds an unusual mixture and I bet it has sugar in it, so tttthough I like liquorice I dont think I will be trying it.

I love licquirice, but no way in a trifle. I love pinapple, but no way with ham, I love peanuts but no way with chinese, wierd or not.

Perhaps as Claire stated we ought to try it, know it sounds weird, but sure M & S would not have put it on shelves without testing first.

Quite a few had gone out of the tray so i guess someone was buying them.
They aslo had Turksih Delight Trifle as well,,I might try that next time.

Liquorice trifle? Sounds gross but it should keep you moving!

Its weekly shop tomorrow and we start by having a coffee in M&S so will have a look for the Liquorice trifle .IF I remember of course ,as this is someone who frequently cant remember what she was going to do today , and tomorrow is a long way off!!

Had a LIquorice Allsorts trifle today. Delicious!!!

In addition to Turkish Delight, they do a Walnut Whip Trifle. Not to my taste, I don't like nuts in food
