For best results, use room-temperature egg whites. This helps them whip up to a greater volume. Make sure your mixing bowl and whisk are completely clean and free of any grease or oil. This will prevent the egg whites from whipping properly. The Pavlova can be made a day ahead of time and stored in an airtight container at room temperature. Add the whipped cream and strawberries just before serving to prevent the meringue from becoming soggy. Feel free to experiment with different fruits and toppings. Other berries, kiwi, passion fruit, or even chocolate shavings would be delicious.
