Can you use key limes in our Lime-Berry Mousse Trifle? Or, why not make a deconstructed key lime pie?

Have you checked Harriet's file?
Ok, skip that - just checked - none there.

I've been searching the internet and couldn't find anything. I'll try to experiment and see what happens.
On thephantomgourmet.com site, they do have an Irish Sherry trifle that looks good.

With electric mixer, blend all ingredients together on medium speed for about 2 minutes. Pour into greased tube pan or 9x13x2 inch baking pan and bake at 325 degrees for 45 minutes. After removing from oven, use an ice pick and stick through cake, top to bottom, many times.

PC has an excellent Key Lime cake that you can make into a trifle. Not sure which cookbook the recipe is. Here's my modified version. I guess I'd use pound cake and drizzle the lime-aid over the pound cake (similar to the cappacino mousse trifle directions)
I make this cake alot in the summer.

1 white cake mix
1 cup thawed, frozen limeade concentrate, divided
16 oz frozen whipped topping, thawed, divided
8 oz cream cheese, softened
3.3 oz white chocolate or cheesecake instant pudding
1 lime
2 tablespoons white choc chips, grated (optional)

Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease and flour Rectangular baker. In Batter Bowl, combine cake mix and ingredients; whisk until smooth. Pour batter into pan. Bake 25-28 minutes or until cake tester inserted in center comes out clean. Remove from oven to Stackable Cooling Rack; cool completely.

Brush cooled cake with ½ cup of the thawed limeade using pastry brush; set aside 1 cup of whipped topping for garnish. In Classic Batter Bowl, microwave cream cheese on High 30 seconds or until soft; whisk until smooth. Gradually add remaining limeade concentrate, whisking until smooth. Add pudding mix and whisk until smooth. Fold in remaining whipped topping using scraper. Spoon filling over cake; spread evenly.

Zest lime and cut slices in half. Grate white chocolate chips over filling. Using reserved whipped topping, pipe rosettes around top edge of cake. Place lime halves between rosettes; sprinkle lime zest over cake. Serve using Slice ‘N Serve.
