Ingredients
- 8 large egg whites
- 2 cups caster sugar
- Pink food colouring
- Wooden skewer
Method
- For best results, use the Breville Bakery Boss® Stand Mixer
- Pre-heat oven to 150°C (130°C fan forced). Place egg whites into Glass Bakery Boss Mixing Bowl. Using the BALLON WHISK, beat the egg whites on the AERATING/ WHIPPING setting, until they have doubled in volume and hold a peak
- Add sugar a tablespoon at a time, ensuring that it incorporates completely before adding the next. Whisk until egg whites are glossy
- Place meringue mixture into 4-5 circles on a baking paper covered oven tray. Repeat using a separate baking tray until mixture is used up
- Using a tablespoon, shape the meringues using a swirling motion
- Dip skewer into food coloring and gently swirl pink dye into each meringue to create a marble effect. Using the back of a tablespoon, continue to swirl dye, to create a more blended effect
- Place meringues in the oven. Bake for approx. 1 hour* until they are crisp, lift off the paper easily and make a hollow sound when tapped. Leave in the oven with door slightly opened, to cool completely (about 1 hour - 1 hour 30 minutes). Serve
Cooking times may vary depending on oven

These look spectacular - thanks.
I recently purchased some raspberry meringues from a chocolatier - they were delicious.
I'm wondering if instead of using food colouring in this recipe it could be substituted with raspberry flavouring?
Hi Helen, you can definitely try raspberry flavouring
Great thanks - I'll give it a try.
How many meringues are we likely to get from this recipe using your method of measurement?
Hi Bev, 8 - 10 depending on how big you make the meringues. Cooking time is about same, but always remember with meringues you should keep an eye on them as oven temps will vary.
What is the oven temperature?
Hi Maureen, pre-heat oven to 150°C (130°C fan forced).
Oh wow, I am a huge fan of MyFoodBook! I recently made these yummy treats for my daughters birthday and they were a hit!!
