1. Place the berries and sugar in a saucepan over a low heat and simmer for 5 minutes, then set aside to cool.
2. Place a layer of madeira cake at the bottom of a trifle bowl or divide between 4 glasses, and spoon 2/3 of the berry mix on top.
3. In a mixing bowl whisk together the mascarpone, and vanilla custard until smooth but make sure it doesn’t get to runny, you want it to remain slightly thick. Spoon on top of the cake and berries, followed by the whipped double cream.
