these were so cute and delicious. Like a mini pavlova!! But far easier to eat. The kids loved them. We lay out all the fruit and they got to make their own up exactly how they liked it. They look really fancy but were actually surprisingly easy to make :) THANK YOU

Gorgeous, somehow I always fail to make merique. But this inspires me to try again. I think I would for a passion fruit topping, or raspberry. Both sounds delicious.
