It's Team Pixie (or Weasley), Team Pouty and Jane!

I love a pav too actually. But I have picked up a top tip on here, ad someone was just shown lemon- ing the wires of their whisk. I've done that to the bowl but never the whisk before.

I like meringue with a bit of chew

The show is filmed in early spring isn't it? Not sure but always thought it was.

LBD.

I was given my pavlova recipe from a Kiwi Grouchy - and its nice brownie, honest! Grin

ample · 26/10/2016 20:08

Chewy meringue here, too.

TheSpottedZebra · 26/10/2016 20:08

Cassis! Your ancestral fruit, Kiwi !

GrouchyKiwi · 26/10/2016 20:09

Oh yes, I would never use any sugar but caster for a pavlova. Might stretch to golden caster for a special occasion.

MiddleClassProblem · 26/10/2016 20:09

I reckon their around May/June now?

CrotchetQuaverMinim · 26/10/2016 20:09

they all sound and look pretty nice in the designing!

bookbook · 26/10/2016 20:09

I love compote , but never totally like raspberry and straberry together in one

bookbook · 26/10/2016 20:10

oh dear Andrew ...

barkingtreefrog · 26/10/2016 20:10

Also watching live for the first time and DH is crap at conversation while watching so joining you if you don't mind!
I want Pixie or Jane to win. Candice reminds me of posh spice back in the 90's when she purses her lips, her faces annoy me! I also think she's got away with more than the others in previous episodes.

CrotchetQuaverMinim · 26/10/2016 20:10

Jane's like Val in listening to the bakes!

hope Andrew's baking paper disaster isn't disastrous

and Jane with a crack, oh no

dementedma · 26/10/2016 20:11

Aww, Andrew has his shorts on!

barkingtreefrog · 26/10/2016 20:11

Wow, those crowns though....

girlinacoma · 26/10/2016 20:11

crack watch

CrotchetQuaverMinim · 26/10/2016 20:11

would hate Paul and Mary wandering around at the final stages!

GrouchyKiwi · 26/10/2016 20:12

I am feeling very lacking in blackcurrants right now, Spotted. Bought some special jam but it's not as nice as my Mum's. Sad

Yes, using lemon on the whisk/bowl can help set the egg whites, rather like putting wine vinegar in when poaching eggs. My pavlova recipe has a teaspoon of malt vinegar in it.

TheSpottedZebra · 26/10/2016 20:12

Candice is actually very good at talking about the food whilst cooking. (As was selasi). I predict a tv career for her. BUT on food network.

Roussette · 26/10/2016 20:12

I bloody love chewy pavlova. I would LOVE to trough down sample these!

SoupDragon · 26/10/2016 20:12

Andrews looks bad unless the decoration turns it around.
Jane's is OK.
Candice surely has this won.

Soubriquet · 26/10/2016 20:13

Team pouty!!

Whether you like her or not, you gotta admit she's good

bookbook · 26/10/2016 20:13

yes Grouchy - thats my recipe too!

Raahh · 26/10/2016 20:13

andrew's looks like it may collapse at any minute.
