Australian pavlova

Baked meringue, crisp on the outside and soft inside, topped with whipped cream and fresh fruit.

This Australian version of pavlova pairs a meringue base with whipped cream and fruit. Australia and New Zealand both claim the dessert’s exact origin; this recipe follows the Australian tradition named here without presenting any single origin story as definitive.
