Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to the temperature specified on the cake mix package. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix with eggs, oil, and water, following the package instructions. Blend the mixture using an electric mixer for about 2 minutes until smooth, then set it aside.
- Divide the cake batter evenly into four separate bowls. Add a few drops of pink, yellow, green, and blue gel food coloring to each bowl and gently mix until you achieve desired pastel hues.
- Grease your cake pans with cooking spray and pour each colored batter into separate pans, spreading evenly. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let them cool on a wire rack.
- Once cooled, carefully remove the cake layers from the pans and cut each into 1-inch cubes.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant pudding mix and cold milk. Beat until thickened and free of lumps. Chill in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to set.
- Layer the trifle: start with cake cubes, then chilled pudding, followed by whipped topping. Repeat the layers until the dish is full, finishing with whipped topping.
- Decorate with mini chocolate eggs and pastel sprinkles. Optionally add edible flowers. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Notes
For optimal taste, prepare the trifle 4-24 hours in advance. Avoid adding delicate decorations until just before serving.
