It is advisable to give sugar to children only after they turn 1 year old. Most store-bought sweeteners contain chemicals or refined sugar which is not good for young children.

Three years ago, I volunteered to bring dessert to William’s family Christmas Black Forest Trifle dinner. Big mistake. His mom is known for her elaborate desserts, his sister went to pastry school, and I panicked completely. Two days before Christmas, I was stress-scrolling Pinterest when I found a photo of a Christmas black forest trifle that looked both impressive and doable.That trifle saved me. This layered dessert with chocolate sponge cake, cherry compote, rich chocolate custard, and clouds of whipped cream became the talk of dinner. William’s mom asked for the recipe. His sister took three servings. Why You’ll Love…
