Method

Preheat oven to 140°C. Line 3 oven trays with baking paper.

Pavlovas : Beat egg whites and water until stiff. Gradually add Chelsea White Sugar to this mix. Beat until thick and glossy.

Mix vinegar, cornflour and baking powder and then mix into the above mixture.

Place onto the trays and spread evenly.

Bake at 140°C for 1 hour. Put wooden spoon in the door of the oven 5 minutes before the end, and then open the oven slightly for about another hour after it has been turned off to help cool the pavlovas.

**Try and leave overnight for best results, if you can resist**

Lemon Curd : Place Chelsea Raw Caster Sugar and lemon in a large bowl, add eggs and butter and immediately start to whisk.

Set pan over double boiler of barely simmering water - don't let bowl touch the water. Continue to whisk until the mix has thickened, then remove from heat and set aside to cool.

Limoncello Cream : Combine cream, mascarpone, Chelsea Icing Cream and limoncello in a large bowl. Beat until soft peaks form.

**Try making your own limoncello; bonus recipe can be found below**

How to assemble: : Once the pavlovas have cooled sufficiently, place the limoncello cream between the pavlovas to layer and around the edges; place the lemon curd on the top layer in the middle.

Top this with violas or pomegranates to decorate to taste.

Bonus: : Homemade Limoncello

Juice half the lemons and chop the rest (doesn't have to be neat). Add chopped lemons, juice and zest from the remaining lemons to a large bowl. Muddle with a rolling pin then add the liquid ingredients. Stir to dissolve Chelsea Caster Sugar a little. Leave in the fridge for 48 hours up to around 1 week, stirring periodically. Strain and decant into bottles.
