With motor running, add first measure of<strong> Chelsea Caster Sugar,</strong> 1 tablespoon at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat until mixture is thick and glossy. Add cornflour, vanilla and vinegar. Beat until just combined.

Whip cream until soft peaks form. Put 1 meringue on each serving plate. Top with cream and curd, then add another meringue. Spoon on cream, and top with passionfruit pulp. Serve.

Meanwhile, put zest, juice, second measure of <strong>Chelsea Caster Sugar</strong> and eggs in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water. Whisk until combined. Add butter and stir until melted and mixture is combined. Continue to stir for 10 mins or until mixture thickens. Remove from heat and cover surface of curd with plastic wrap.
