For the Meringue

Method
 

Making the Meringue
  1. Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C).

  3. Gradually add sugar, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until glossy and fully dissolved, about 5 minutes.
  4. Fold in cornstarch and vinegar gently with a spatula.
  5. Spoon the meringue mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, creating small nests or rounds.
  6. Bake for 1 hour or until dry to the touch and pale in color. Let cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar.

  2. Top with whipped cream and fresh berries or kiwi.
  3. Optional: Drizzle with chocolate sauce for an extra touch.
