6. Cut pound cake into 12 slices, and spread jam on 1 side of each slice.
7. Place 2 tablespoons mango mixture and 2 tablespoons lime mixture into each of 6 (1 1/2-cup) parfait or wineglasses. Top each with 1 cake slice.
8. Arrange strawberry slices around inside of glasses. Add 3 tablespoons mango mixture and remaining cake slices. Arrange mango slices around glasses, and top with 3 tablespoons lime mixture.
9. Beat whipping cream with an electric mixer until foamy. Gradually add sugar, beating until stiff peaks form. Pipe or dollop whipped cream on top of parfait. Chill parfaits 2 to 6 hours. Garnish, if desired.
