Once, at the beginning of my baking journey, someone more experienced told me that Pavlova is not a “fruit salad” — you should stick to one type of fruit. Oh, how wrong they were. Or perhaps Pavlova has simply evolved so much that no combination surprises anyone anymore?
Toffee Pavlova with cinnamon and figs. By using a mix of brown sugar and white sugar (half and half), the meringue takes on a beautiful toffee-like flavour :). This recipe caught my attention because of its unusual method – completely different from how I used to make Pavlova.
After rose ice cream, a rose Pavlova simply had to follow. For now, it’s paired with strawberries and pistachios, but later in the summer it’s just as delicious with raspberries. This rose Pavlova with strawberries is truly hard to beat :). If you enjoy floral flavours, be
Such a specific flavour combination – and probably my favourite when it comes to Pavlova: beautifully sweet and tangy :). This Pavlova with gooseberries and kiwi even beats the classic version with lemon curd, and it’s simply not to be missed during gooseberry season!
A true Christmas showstopper! I fell in love after the very first bite. A deliciously crisp-on-the-outside, marshmallow-soft Pavlova layered with a creamy filling enriched with marsala or amaretto, coffee-soaked sponge biscuits and finished with a dusting of cocoa. Elegant

Cranberry Pavlova – a wonderful festive meringue dessert layered with cranberry curd and whipped cream. Simply decorated yet beautifully seasonal, with sprigs of fresh rosemary reminiscent of a Christmas tree. Delicious thanks to the perfect balance of sweet
The perfect summer cake. Raspberry Cloud Cake features a delicate shortbread base, plenty of raspberries set in raspberry jelly, luscious cream and a crunchy almond meringue on top. This recipe was sent to me by Aleksandra (thank you so much!). The original
