Tyler Florence's Lemon Curd Trifle with Fresh Berries

I made this dessert for the Easter feast hosted by our extended family.  It was very time intensive, as I started it on Saturday and finished it on Sunday. One of the ingredients listed is a lemon pound cake, which based on one of the recipe reviews, I made using Ina Garten's lemon yogurt cake recipe:(http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/lemon-yogurt-cake-recipe/index.html)
Part of this recipe includes the making of fresh lemon curd, and while not terribly difficult, is an additional time investment.  The curd did come out terrific, but you could easily skip that step and use store bought lemon curd without comprimising the dessert at all.
That being said, here is a photo of my trifle, garnished on top with arranged berries and edible spring flowers.  Would I make it again, sure!  Will I use a store-bought lemon curd, probably.
