Hi Laci!! Thank you so much! Take care and have a wonderful day!!😀
Oooo this looks good. My mum loves pavlova. For the meringue base, can any other type of sugar be used other than coconut/maple, like regular white, or would that make it taste odd? Printing this one out for my mum as she’s always saying ‘I should try to make something’ but never does. Now she’ll have a good incentive to when she sees those photos 😉

Hi Caz!! For making meringue base you can definitely use white or brown sugar and it still will be delicious! I prefer sweetening desserts with raw honey because I love the taste and I believe it’s healthier but you can definitely use regular white sugar! So instead of adding 1/2 cup coconut sugar add 1/2 white or brown sugar!! Take care and make your pavlova cake!! Have a great day Caz!!
Thank you lovely! 😀
You’re welcome!!😘😘
