Whisk the whites until stiff and gradually add the sugar until you have a glossy, even meringue. Using two spoons, shape into balls and place onto a sheet of greaseproof paper on the baking tray.
Bake at 100° for 1 and a half hours. Let stand in the oven – the meringues have to be dry.
Whip the very cold cream with the sugar and spread it out over our dry meringues. Decorate with fruit, toasted almond bits, mint and a scattering of flower petals. Sprinkle with icing sugar.
