Pavlova Recipe NZ | Edmonds Cooking

Pavlova - ​The recipe for a lofty meringue cake evolved slowly in both Australia and New Zealand, but the name arrived in 1935 when Bert Sachse, chef at the Esplanade Hotel in Perth, named his cake in honour of Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova. Chef Sachse later acknowledged that the recipe he used was from a 1929 cookery book, The New Zealand Dairy Exporter.
