There is a reason Pavlovas have existed as far back as the 16th century or earlier. They are an age-old, delightful, and decadent dessert that is easy to bake and even easier to love. The texture of the pavlova is one of its most marvelous qualities. The meringue is light and airy, with a delicate crispness on the outside and a soft, marshmallow-like interior that melts in your mouth. In this recipe for Marvelous Mulberry Pavlovas elderflower is incorporated into the meringue for a captivating floral aroma. They are then decorated with Chantilly cream, which imparts a smooth and creamy contrast, as well as a home-crafted mulberry jam, which adds a tantalizing tartness that cuts through the sweetness of the meringue. These flavors and textures come together to create a decadent dessert that is both light and refreshing. These Marvelous Mulberry Pavlovas are perfect for any gathering or special occasion.

Instructions

Mulberry Jam

Step 1

Wash the mulberries and remove any stems.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, combine the mulberries, honey, water, and orange juice. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.

Step 3

(Meanwhile make the meringues.) Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the berries have broken down and the jam has thickened. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 4

Pour the jam into a clean jar and seal tightly. (Jam can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.)

Meringues

Step 5

Preheat the oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit and position the rack in the lower third for even baking.

Step 6

In a stand mixer bowl, using the whisk attachment, beat egg whites and a pinch of salt on medium-high speed until soft, glossy peaks form. Gradually add granulated sugar. Beat the meringue on high for approximately 5 minutes until firm and glossy. Pause the stand mixer, sprinkle in cornstarch, elderflower or vanilla, and champagne vinegar. Set the stand mixer speed to low-medium for 1 minute to combine.

Step 7

Use a spoon to scoop moundlets of meringue on one or two baking sheets. Use the spoon to make shallow craters in each moundlet. Place the baking sheets in the oven and bake for about 37 minutes or until the meringues are firm and dry. Be careful to ensure the meringues are not browned. Turn off the oven and let the meringues cool for 10 minutes then transfer them to a wire rack to cool for 50 minutes more.

Step 8

Once the meringues have cooled, top each with a dollop of chantilly cream, a spoonful of luscious mulberry jam, and a scattering of fresh mulberries. Enjoy!
