About this recipe
Mixed Berries Pavlova Stack Thermomix TM7 is a stunning layered dessert that turns a handful of egg whites, sugar and fresh raspberries into a restaurant-worthy finale for any summer dinner or festive celebration. Searching for pavlova recipes for your all-in-one kitchen machine often leads to complicated methods, but the TM7 removes the guesswork entirely: it grinds the sugar to a superfine texture that dissolves invisibly into the whisked egg whites, while the whipping function builds glossy, cloud-like meringue with cream of tartar, vinegar and natural vanilla in a single bowl. The corn starch guarantees that trademark crisp shell with a marshmallow-soft centre. Once the meringue layers are baked and cooled, the Thermomix whips the cream to soft folds, ready to stack with juicy mixed berries. Whether you host a birthday brunch or an elegant dinner, this pavlova recipe delivers drama on the plate with minimal effort.
Preparation tips
- Ensure the mixing bowl and butterfly whisk are completely grease-free before whisking the egg whites; even a trace of fat prevents the meringue from reaching stiff, glossy peaks for your pavlova layers.
- Draw circles on baking parchment as a guide for the meringue stacks, and make a slight dip in each centre with a spoon so the whipped cream and raspberries have a nest to sit in after baking.
- Swap the mixed berries for whatever is seasonal and ripe: frozen raspberries work well too, but thaw and drain them first so the juice does not soak into the whipped cream layer of the stack.
Recipe variations
- Lactose-free version: replace the whipped dairy cream with a chilled lactose-free whipping cream or coconut cream whipped in the TM7, keeping the same airy texture between the meringue layers and berries.
- Festive winter variation: use pomegranate seeds, thin clementine segments and a dusting of icing sugar instead of summer berries, turning the pavlova stack into a striking Christmas dessert centrepiece.
