You can create this classic English dish in minutes by using 
a store-bought pavlova instead 
of homemade meringue. Layer 
it with whipped vanilla cream 
and berries and top with 
fairy floss. Yum!

Ingredients

2 cups frozen raspberries

600ml thickened cream

2 tsp vanilla bean paste

500g Coles pavlova

250g punnet strawberries, sliced

Rose Persian fairy floss, to serve

Method

  1. Set aside 1 cup frozen raspberries and allow to thaw, then roughly mash with a fork.

  2. In the large bowl of an electric mixer, beat cream and vanilla until soft peaks form. Gently swirl mashed raspberries through (don’t overmix).

  3. In 6 x 375ml capacity glasses, layer cream, torn pavlova, remaining raspberries and strawberries. Repeat layering and top with fairy floss. Serve.
