English Summer Pudding

1. 1

   Combine first 7 ingredients in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Set aside.

2. 2

   Cut cake into 1-inch-thick slices; cut each slice in half diagonally to make 2 triangles. Line the bottom and sides of a 3-quart straight-sided glass bowl or trifle bowl with half of the cake pieces; spoon half of peach mixture into cake-lined bowl. Arrange half of remaining cake pieces over the peach mixture, and spoon remaining peach mixture over cake. Top with remaining cake pieces.

3. 3

   Place plastic wrap on surface of cake pieces, and place a small plate on top of plastic wrap; place a 1-pound can on plate to firmly press mixture. Chill for 8 hours. Remove plate and plastic wrap. Garnish with additional fresh berries, if desired.
