      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.

    To make a pavlova, you need to cook the entire thing as one shape. It's supposed to be very big. That's how it can get soft in the middle. My mum always turns the oven off after cooking and leaves the pav in there until the oven has completely cooled. That's how to prevent the outer crust from caving in.

    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.

    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.

    It should have a crispy meringue crust but a light and pillowy centre when baked in a larger cake.

    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 ☺️

    Try using Nigella Lawson recipe for her pavlova. It has a lot less sugar in the meringue and also no sugar in the cream. She also uses grenadillas as a sauces through or just over the fruit and cream to balance the sugar.

    I’m an Aussie and I love pavlova the texture is almost like a meringue on the outside but then in the middle it gets spongy, soft and chewy it’s kind of hard to describe.

    Maybe you haven't tried the Berry or passion fruit pavlova. The bomb! And usually, pavlova meringues aren't too sweet, they are pretty bland-ish. Maybe your sugar to egg white ratio was wrong. Try with a tangy-ier topping, unsweetened whiped cream and it should balance out the sweetness of ur failed meringues.

    also, you should try a store bought pavlova, it would be difficult to make if you don't know what you're trying to achieve, it should wiggle like jelly on the inside and have only a thin hard shell on the outside
    also, make sure you add plain whipped cream, not some sugary one from a can! get a bottle of thickened cream and whip it!
