Quoted By:
Beneath the holly's gentle glow,
Where festive candles softly show,
A trifle rests, a layered dream,
A feast adorned in Yuletide gleam.
Golden sponge, so tender, sweet,
Lies soaked in spirits’ warm retreat.
With cherries red like holly’s crown,
They glisten, jewels in cream poured down.
A velvet touch, the custard flows,
Its golden silk in rhythm shows.
Ricotta whispers, mascarpone sighs,
A cloud of bliss beneath the skies.
Boeren jongens, aged and wise,
Add sweetness rich, a bold surprise.
And tokkelroom, with gentle cheer,
Brings forth the warmth of Christmas near.
Oh, trifle fair, with layers deep,
A treasure found where flavors meet.
No gift beneath the tree so fine,
As this sweet joy of Christmastime.
So gather near, in candlelight,
And taste the heart of festive night.
For in this trifle’s merry art,
Resides the love of Christmas heart.
