Cowell's Genuine Pavlovas are a soft sweet meringue, with a crisp outside and a soft marshmallow centre. These irresistible dessert pillows melt in your mouth and offer great presentation to your creations.
No one knows who first created the Pavlova, and doubt still continues whether it was first made in Australia or New Zealand. But the name, and Pavlova recipes, first began appearing soon after Russian prima ballerina, Anna Pavlova, toured the country in 1926. The dessert was obviously created in her honor. Today, pavlovas are the national dessert of New Zealand.
- Easy to serve and cut, and delicious when served with a tart fruit such as strawberries, raspberries, kiwifruit, blueberries, passion fruit and cream.
- An excellent option to serve ice cream on a restaurant and/or banquet dessert menu.
- Most recently, Cowell's Pavlovas have been made with more unusual or 'gourmet' toppings including nuts, chocolate, caramel and nougat.
- Pavlovas have a rustic look, which makes them unique.
- Leftover decorated pavlovas can be refrigerated overnight, however the dessert will absorb moisture from the air and lose its crispness.
- Fat free, Trans Fat free, Low in Sodium, Kosher and Free Range Egg White Options are available.
- Shelf life is 12 months frozen from date of manufacture. Best stored frozen.
- Manufactured in New Zealand.
Serving Suggestions:
- Cut pavlova in half. Remove top half and cream the bottom. Replace the top and cream also. Drizzle the top with melted chocolate.
- For that extra something special add a small amount of cocoa powder or chocolate shavings to the cream prior to whipping. Then top off your pavlova.
- Crush brandy snap pieces and fold gently into the whipped cream just prior to serving. If added too early the brandy snap pieces will dissolve.
- If you like tropical flavors, try drizzling passionfruit sauce over the whipped cream and serving with fresh melon, grapes and pineapple. Adding some pineapple leaves as a garnish will give that finishing touch.
