Cheers Baz ... I cannot understand why my meringues never work out and I have to improvise with an Eton Mess.

This one looks perfect

Saying as it's you  

Hope so Rexi, I'd need a sat nav 

Nothing better than doing a new recipe and it turning out well....well done Rexi 

Well done, Rexi.

Whipped cream, strawberries, raspberries and blueberrys (half price from Budgens), then some redcurrants from the garden that I froze last year, and I shall make a redcurrant coulis too 

*Licks lips*

ahhh, I thought you'd taken up ballet! 

Congrats I've never got meringue right  

errmmm, I have a horrid vision of me in a tutu

This is the first one I have ever done ... I keep going into the kitchen and gazing at it

You musn't be whisking enough    Hark at me! chef/cook of the year - I think not 

*Hopes no-one's collapsed it* 

Huh? What?

Deliah says to keep it in the oven overnight ... so that's what I'm going

Well that way no air can get to it can it? 

And I first read that as Delilah 

! Is someone who whisks a whisker ? 

Why, why why?!

! Laughing.. but I know what you mean about the pride thing .. I made a perfect cheesecake once and wouldn't let anyone eat it because it was so beautiful  

PMSL! 

Did you take a photie for posterity? 

The first Pavlova I made (about 25 years or more ago)was so chewy you needed a knife and fork to attack it ..........................it took me years to attempt it again - I am a little better now but no way is it ever guaranteed!

Hope it tastes as good as it looks 

Morning Ladies

Well done Rexi.  I've never been able to master the art of pavlova mine always come out just tasting like eggs 

well done, I hope you have a bit left for my lunch!!!!

See now I want pavlova!!

That minx Nigella does one where she puts whipped cream and passion fruit all over one, and I always always want some.

yes, it has made me hanker after a pudding guess whos popping to the shops!

We're taking the family out for dinner tonight, so I'm going to spend the rest of the day dreaming abut what I'm going to have for dessert.

*goes off to look for website to see if there's a menu on it*

I think you need a VERY hot oven for meringues....and a relitively short time.

Is your oven hot enough?

Make sure it's fully preheated before the meringues go in and then turn it down 50 degrees or so (I'm talking Celsius) then leave them in the oven while it cools completely once the cooking/baking period is over.

Remember to turn the oven off for this!

mmmmmm, well I've made the stickiest chocolate brownies too - so that's pudding tomorrow sorted

You'll need an agent soon at this rate 

I'll need weightwatchers ... I keep testing it all

Your baked Alaska will be the acid test
