sorry rb

i have never liked the pavlova magic ones. (i think the pavs taste fake) my mum had always made hers from scratch and then made all the yokes into scrambled eggs or baked a cake. i have followed in her footsteps and make mine from scratch too. good luck. :chef:

I've never made one before, my IL's sent it down in a care parcel months ago & i just found it after MJ had stolen it from the cupboard :laughing:

I tried google and nothing came up! Unless you wanted to make pavlova from scratch.

An idea might be to ring the consumer number on the back of the packet and they should be able to tell you the recipe!

My egg label says:

Combine mixture and water in small bowl of electric mixer
Beat, add fine white (castor) sugar
Pile onto baking tray. Bake.
Serve cold, decorated with cream and fruit.

Then it says:

Detailed instructions inside....
oh. Okay, I'll keep going...

Inside instructions:

Preheat oven to 150 fan forced, 170 electric or 160 gas.
Use high sided mixing bowl, not soft plastic.
Not suitable for microwave oven
For best results use fine white sugar

Fill bottom of plast "egg" with lukewarm water 140ml. Empty into small mixer bowl, gently add pavlova mix to the water and stir for 15 secs.

Use mixer at highest speed until mixture is stiff and peaks hold their form, this will take 4-7 minutes.

Switch mixer to slowest speed. Heap top of plastic "egg" with sugar (130g) and sprinkle evenly into the mix, switch mixer onto highest speed for one minute only.

Heap mixture onto lined baking tray, piling into high dome shape. Pavlova Magic will change shape during cooking. Place on middle shelf and immediately alter temperature to 100 degrees fan forced, 120 for electric, 110 for gas.

Bake for one hour.

turn off oven and leave to cool completely. do not open door during cooking process or drying process.
