Use half of the cake cubes to line the bottom of a large glass bowl. Layer half of the strawberries followed by half of the blueberries then half of the raspberries, blackberries and kiwi. Push the kiwi against the side of the trifle dish so that they can be seen from the outside. Spread half of the pudding over the fruit. Repeat layers in the same order.
