Cut the cake into cubes. The best way of doing this is slicing through the cake horizontally into three slices, once through the middle vertically, and then in once inch increments. See below.
There are two ways of presenting this dessert. If you have a giant clear glass bowl, then you can layer each of the ingredients one by one. First put a generous layer of the Cool Whip, top with a handful of berries and cubes of cake, more Cool Whip, more fruit/cake, repeat until supply is exhausted.

However, if you don’t have a clear bowl (like me) but want to present it the way shown below, you need two bowls- one big and one small. Layer the ingredients into the small bowl as instructed above but save some Cool Whip. Then, take the larger bowl and cover the smaller bowl. Carefully flip the bowls so that the smaller bowl with the trifle is now upside down in the larger bowl. Wiggle the smaller bowl slightly so that the trifle slips out. Top the cake with some Cool Whip and garnish with shaved chocolate. This also works on a large plate too (though it’ll get messy when you scoop it).
