Best Answer

"Trifle" is a dessert that has at least THREE layers of something such as, chocolate cake, pudding and topped with whip cream and maybe a crushed toffee bar over the top as a decoration or to add crunch. When you look through the side of that glass bowl, you see the layers.

"Truffle" is a small chocolate ball rolled sometimes in cocoa or crushed nuts. It is also an edible fungus.

Would a truffle be more common in found in the ground or the name of a custard and jelly dessert?

You are confusing "truffle" and "trifle" here. A TRUFFLE is a fungus found underground, usually rooted out by dogs or pigs, and extremely valued and high-priced due to its distinctive flavor and rarity. A custard and fruit or jelly dessert is known as a TRIFLE, and is rooted in English cooking. Commonly, a trifle is a custard layered with pieces of fruit or fruit jam...and may also have long slender cake-style cookies called "ladyfingers" lining the trifle dish. There is another type of TRUFFLE, too: It's a bite-sized piece of candy dipped in chocolate, and having a soft creamy chocolate center. It's named "truffle" for its resemblance in looks to the truffles found underground.
