HOW DO I PIT A CHERRY?


Use a cherry or olive pitter if
you have one. If not, run a small
sharp knife around the cherry
to cut it in half, then remove the
stone. To keep the cherry
whole, use a metal skewer to
cut around the stem end and
then prise out the stone.

you can try different sizes and

DECK YOUR TABLE WITH THIS FESTIVE EDIBLE
CENTREPIECE – IT’S A TREAT TO MAKE THANKS
TO MERINGUES BOUGHT FROM COLES.

EASY RASPBERRY
MERINGUE TOWER
This impressive centrepiece is easier
to make than it looks – all you need is
2 x 54g pkts Coles Mini Fruity Meringues
(9 pack) and 2 x 100g pkts Coles Meringue
Kisses, plus a few simple kitchen tricks.
CREATE THE BASE

Recipe Emma Braz Photography Steve Brown Styling Michelle Noerianto Food preparation Cynthia Black
To make the tower, cut a 50cm circle from
thin cardboard and cut in half. Shape 1 half
into a cone, cutting excess to fit. Secure
firmly with tape. Place on a serving platter.
MAKE THE BUTTERCREAM
Use an electric mixer to beat 50g butter,
softened, in a bowl until pale and creamy.
Gradually beat in ¾ cup (120g) pure icing
sugar. Beat in 25g raspberries.
NOW DECORATE
Spread bases of 10 fruity meringues with
a little buttercream. Arrange around base
of the cone. Spread bases of 10 meringue
kisses with a little buttercream. Sandwich
with 10 more meringue kisses and attach
to the cone using a little buttercream.
Attach remaining meringue kisses and extra
raspberries to the cone using remaining
buttercream. Decorate with thyme sprigs.
