For a richer flavor, consider using a homemade pound cake instead of store-bought.
If you don't have coconut rum, vanilla extract or almond extract can be used as a substitute.
Feel free to add other berries, such as raspberries or blackberries, to the trifle.
This trifle can be assembled up to 24 hours in advance. Just be sure to keep it refrigerated until serving.
To prevent the pound cake from becoming soggy, you can lightly toast the cubes before assembling the trifle.
