      Yes! Lots of fruit and use a few different types, often strawberries, kiwi fruit, banana, passion fruit all together ... and you can choose how sweet to make the whipped cream that goes with it.

    A couple of tips, they weren’t whipped long enough. You’re looking for stiff peaks. Also, don’t top them with regular sweetened whipped cream. VERY low sugar whipped cream balances it out. Just enough sugar to enhance the creaminess which is a surprisingly small amount. Personally, I like mine a little browned but that’s more of a personal preference, I think. Lastly, if you don’t like merengue, there’s no way you’re going to like Pavlovas given that they are just topped merengue.

      @@butasimpleidiotwizard no, not necessarily. I see a lot of people repeating that in the comments as if it’s absolutely traditional not to. I suspect there’s just a lot of repeating going on and most people haven’t actually baked one. Although some bakers choose not to most do, in my opinion, not adding absolutely any is a mistake. I put a very, very small amount. As I said, just enough to bring out the flavors on the cream. Without it the cream’s flavors get completely lost. A lot of bakers make it that way and no, it doesn’t break tradition. People don’t realize it has sugar in it because it’s practically indiscernible, at least it should be.

    Whipped cream should be unsweetened. Pavlova has vanilla extract in it. They usually have passionfruit pulp drizzled on and kiwi fruit slices for extra tartness. You can also add a touch of strawberry oil to the strawberries for added flavour.

    As an Aussie, a simple pavlova (we call it pav) is plain white meringue that is as large as a regular round cake size with whipped cream on top (proper cream, not the kind you spray out of a can). The cream is placed onto the meringue base, and then it is topped with berries and passion fruit. It is a STAPLE for Aussie Christmas ❤

    The texture of a pavlova is very different to a meringue. A meringue is mostly crunchy as they’re smaller and normally done in the ‘birds nest’ style like you did. A true pav is a single cake sized dessert and is slightly crunchy on the outside, but like a dissolving marshmallow on the inside. It’s perfect with whipped cream (not the stuff from a can) and fresh summer fruit.

    We make Pavlova Cakes for special dinners very often in the family. But we don't make them in individual batches. We use one round baker, approximately being covered till the middle. That way, when the Pavlova gets baked it has a lot of product inside. It gets crispy on the periphery but almost creamy like in the center.

    If you make it as a single large pav it makes a very soft, pillowy texture with a crunchy outside. They are always very sweet and dont have much actual flavour. Topped with unsweetened whipped cream and tart fruit like strawberries, citrus fruits or kiwi fruit it is great. My personal favourite topping is chocolate sauce and strawberries. Or strawberry sauce is good too. Essentially the real flavour comes from what you put with it rather than the pav itself.

    Hey 👋 I’m a kiwi (New Zealander) typically we add fresh fruit to the side like passionfruit, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, kiwi berries, whipped cream and maybe a little bit of mint if you’re feeling fancy hope this helps
    Edit: when I make pavlova I add a little bit of vinegar
    So a pavlova with 6 egg whites and a cup and a half of caster sugar gets a tablespoon of vinegar it just helps cut through the sweetness it sounds weird but you don’t even taste it hope you find this useful ☺️

    the more traditional way of making a pavlova (coming from an Aussie) is to make it not in small servings, but in a large cake. also make sure to add whipped cream and LOTS of different fruit that taste well together. but that’s just what I think, and the person reading this may like it a different way, but always have it with fruit and whipped cream. it’s just essential!!

    Pavlovas taste better when they’re larger in cake form. It also helps to balance out the sweetness of the meringue by adding passion fruit pulp and using lightly sweetened (perhaps unsweetened) whipped cream.
