Decided to make one for my next door neighbour now knowing she likes sweet things even though she has lost about 3 stone in 3 years.

Everything at the ready and I have been making them for a long time now but NOT often enough.

Pre-heated my oven (fan) to 150 and put Anna (pavlova) in to the oven - for the hour. Looked the bloody thing was burnt.

I'm sure I have used 150 degree many many times but I'll try again tomorrow and try at 130 or 140. I just perused our famous bakers, Mary Berry, Delia etc and each one of them give different temperatures.

I can't believe it went wrong.

yes Burly LOL - the egg loss. the last time I did make one was last November and it was my best and I do think it was 150
Mmmm, me too , could just eat some but No, I won’t be tempted
We warned you against using 150C last year, Jennyjoan, and you then found that 130C was ideal:

right Chris - I truly forgotten that post and when I did follow 130 it was a great success and it was last November when I said it was the best.

Now I am confident re the temperatures I will try again tomorrow.

Thanks Chris - "is there nothing you don't know". x
too hot, far too hot, 110 if you can 45 minutes and then leave the meringue in the oven as it cools.

Update - have done a new one today at 130, is perfect.

Will wait until it is very cold before I decorate with pineapple chunks, strawberries and flake.

Oh and whipped cream. Wish I could take a bit but that would look outta place
