Like adult meringues, but smaller! They are light, airy and crispy. Slightly sweet with a hint of flavour or colour of your choice... they look cute stacked on the dessert table.

Definitely a pavlova style meringue - it was soft and chewy on the inside. Easy to make just make sure you whip the eggs for long enough while adding the sugar etc. Cooked in the time the recipe said. It made 50 meringues so definitely could halve the recipe next time! I used these for a Christmas wreath with whipped cream and fruit and everyone loved it! Absolute hit! I will be making this again. Overall amazing recipe, delicious and easy. Would 100% recommend to anyone - even kids. 10/10 recipe, approved=true, user_name=Abby, hs_createdate=1764995539006, rating_new__1_5_=5, id=188390720966}, {comment_text=Great recipe. I like to make a lemon curd with the yolks and it goes well with the mini packs. Just yolks, sugar, zest and juice of a lemon.

Am I missing something? CHELSEA: Oh no! A few things that can help next time: make sure your bowl and beaters are squeaky clean with no trace of grease or yolk, let your egg whites come to room temperature, and whisk on high speed until they’re nice and opaque before adding sugar. Do that and you’ll have those proud, glossy peaks standing tall in no time., approved=true, user_name=Rokohe Hallett, hs_createdate=1754632680432, rating_new__1_5_=2, id=118024518094}]}

Method

Preheat oven to 110°C bake. Line two large baking trays with baking paper.
In a large bowl (not plastic) beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually, add Chelsea Caster Sugar very slowly. The sugar adding process should take at least 10 minutes. The resulting mixture should be thick and glossy.
Beat in the cornflour, vanilla essence and vinegar until just combined.
Use food colouring to tint the mixture if desired.
Spoon or pipe mixture into little 'blobs' on prepared trays. Bake for 45 minutes. The meringues should be dry all over and lift off the paper easily.
Cool on a wire rack before transferring to an airtight container (they will keep well for a couple of weeks).
Serve with whipped cream, fruit and berry or chocolate sauce, if desired.
