Title: Re: wow dont you love mums Post by: Jon MW on June 10, 2009, 01:58:53 PM It looks pretty fab to me - but that might be an appreciation of how nice it must have tasted rather than it's actual looks.
I'd tend to keep the meringue all at the bottom for pavlova's for presentation purposes. I'd do something like this for yours (http://www.littleshamrocks.com/image-files/pavlova.jpg) With the Kiwi's interspersed with the strawberries and the chocolate on top of the meringue base Title: Re: wow dont you love mums Post by: DUNK619 on June 10, 2009, 02:06:27 PM who cares what it looks like as long as it tastes good not gonna be there long is it
Title: Re: wow dont you love mums Post by: Claw75 on June 10, 2009, 02:10:36 PM I make a wicked pavlova if I do say so myself! best with strawberries and grapes :)up
Title: Re: wow dont you love mums Post by: phatomch on June 10, 2009, 04:39:45 PM its two layers of meringue with the cream and fruit in the middle, on the bottom layer she melted 70% chocolate and then smeared over so its a thin layer when it cooled so keeps the bottom layer from going soggy.
