Cherry Pavlova
My daughter Zoe made this superb dessert and wrote this blog post.
A Pavlova is a meringue-based dessert and is the perfect vehicle for many fruits; cherries, lemons, and strawberries to name a few. Another great thing about a Pavlova is that you are granted quite a bit of liberty—which, if you’re a baker, you know is fairly rare. While the recipe for the meringue itself is untouchable, what you put on it is completely up to the baker. In addition to a simple cherry syrup drizzled on top, there is a layer of sautéed cherry halves soaked in apricot liqueur hidden beneath lashings of whipped cream. Again, this was an independent choice I made as a means to use as many cherries as possible and can therefore be toned up or toned down. Pavlovas can be made on a large scale—as seen here—or on an individual scale, which invites an opportunity for variety. Great for parties or even just family dinners, a Pavlova can be made hours in advance so there is no in-between-dinner-and-dessert hustle or fuss.
