A Sweet Sunday Surprise: Raspberry Pavlova

Published 9 months ago • 1 min read



A Sweet Sunday Surprise: Raspberry Pavlova

Hello Reader,

Imagine crisp yet marshmallowy nests of meringue gently cradling billowing cream and juicy raspberry jewels - that is the magic of a perfect pavlova.

With its delicacy, airy sweetness and touches of whimsy, the pavlova transforms any occasion into something special. Simply beholding its ethereal layers is sure to spark joy and delight.

After a week of duties and demands, I crave taking time to craft a little luxury through food on Sundays.

Creating beauty nourishes the soul as much as flavor nourishes the body.

Today, let's breathe life into that motivation and craft the loveliest blushing pavlova together.

Creating Pavlova Magic

For the meringue:

4 egg whites

Pinch of salt

1 cup superfine sugar

1 tbsp cornstarch

1 tsp white vinegar

1 tsp vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 120°C. In a large bowl, beat egg whites and salt until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar until stiff and glossy. Whisk in cornstarch, vinegar and vanilla.

Dollop large mounds on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Bake 1 hour 15 minutes until dry on the outside yet marshmallowy inside.

Cool completely before assembly.

For the topping:

2 cups heavy whipping cream

1/3 cup powdered sugar

2 cups fresh raspberries

Edible flowers for garnish

For maximal beauty:

  • Pipe the meringue into circular nest shapes using a piping bag
  • Bake in the oven at the lowest temperature possible, for a slow dry
  • Cool the meringue completely before topping to keep the structure intact

Now for the fun garnishes and serving vessels:

  • Adorn with edible flowers - violas, pansies, roses offer pops of color and whimsy
  • Serve in stemmed glasses or mini crocks for a summer soiree
  • Go classic with individual clouds of meringue and fruit
  • Accent flavors with lemon zest, vanilla bean, rosewater, lavender

However you dress up this dessert, it's sure to be a showstopper!

With Love and Bliss,

Milady A
