Receta Meringues and Pavlovas, after the fact

…of failed Macs

I’ve never made meringues, but with my leftover egg whites from my Mac disaster, I decided to try them, not much to lose.

As it happened, I was on Fig Jam and Lime Cordial, reading about Sherry Trifles and swirly meringues….so I didn’t need to search further for a recipe.

All went well and I now have the confidence to shun store-bought meringues…for life.

I ♥ them:

They decorate well. How’s this for a ghoulish Halloween meringue? All that was required was a cocktail stick dipped in black food colouring – my second mate (daughter #2), who helped me make these was in 7th heaven…..

Especially when it came to making the pink swirls – trust girls and all things pink!

Did I mention that…
