Plus:
Approximately 1/2 tablespoon cream (whipped or thickened) per pavlova nest – optional.
Your choice of fruit. I used kiwi fruit, strawberries and passionfruit.
Preheat your oven to 140 degrees celsius. Line a tray with baking paper.
Place your eggwhites into a clean, dry bowl and beat until they are fluffy.
Use your whisk attachement on your stand mixer, or your hand beaters are perfect.![](https://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wKpDp2D61WY/S2JATylgu2I/AAAAAAAACAo/JT_MYOQKVtc/s400/Meringue+(1)blog.jpg)
When the egg whites are nice and fluffy, add the sugar slowly. A little at a time. You want the sugar to be completely whisked in.![](https://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wKpDp2D61WY/S2JATFHzItI/AAAAAAAACAY/SZVdhv-Uqzo/s400/Meringue+(8)blog.jpg)

You know they’re done when you rub a little meringue between your fingers and can’t feel any sugar granules.

Take them out of the oven, and put a dollop of cream in the middle of the nest. (This is optional, some people don’t like cream, but they do like the meringue part!)
