New Zealand Discovery #10: Pavlova

December – May 2103

New Zealand’s specialty dessert is pavlova. A meringue shell is baked to be crisp on the outside and soft on the inside, then topped with berries and whipped cream. It’s especially popular in the summer and, like pumpkin pie is the standard American holiday dessert, Pavlova is the standard Kiwi holiday dessert. It’s delicious, and I’m surprised it’s not more popular in America. –Cyndi

Usually pavlova would be served on a plate, but this restaurant does a version in a glass like a parfait. (New Zealand)

And here is Mc Donald's version of pavlova: soft serve with meringue nuggets and passionfruit sauce. (New Zealand)
