Meringue

The Nordic summer is filled with fresh berries, including tart gooseberries, which are fantastic in a tangy compote for a sweet dessert like this one

Nothing says ‘summer’s here’ like a fruit-laden pavlova, and this topping is a great twist on traditional berries. Feel free to make a double batch of the lime syrup – it’s great drizzled over fruit and yogurt in the morning and works brilliantly in summer cocktails

Everyone’s favourite after-dinner cocktail in a pudding! Feather-light brown sugar meringue is topped with a decadent chocolate and coffee cream and finished with a coffee liqueur syrup

A fruity pavlova perfect for using in-season cherries

Underrated kiwis get to shine in these more-ish puds – ideal for prepping ahead
