Delicious Gluten Free Berry Trifle

This is one of our favorites - year round!  It always makes an appearance at Christmas, and of course you have to make it all spring and summer when the berries come round.  This is a basic recipe - feel free to change it up!  Start with my angel food cake recipe,  that everyone will think contains gluten because it is that good, or I guess you can use any angel food cake but I don't guarantee the results!
Trifle
1 angel food cake, cooled and broken or cut into chunks( I usually don't use the entire cake)
1 sm. pkg. vanilla pudding, make according to directions
1 pkg. danish junket, raspberry or strawberry, made according to glaze instructions
Berries- fresh or frozen.  I use about 1 frozen bag's worth of raspberries(our favorite)
Whip cream(optional)

You can use a pretty trifle bowl, or any other dish you please.  Start out by chunking your angel food cake, set aside.   Make you danish dessert and let cool, and then stir in your berries.  Make your pudding, set aside. Now it is time to assemble.  Place 1/2 your cake in the dish, then cover with 1/2 the berry mixture and top with 1/2 the pudding.  Repeat layers and top with whip cream if desired.  Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.  Be creative and add bananas, blueberries or whatever you please.  There is no way to ruin this lovely dessert!
