Darryl.

As Benee points out, there are no (wild) dingoes in New Zealend. Our native Kiwi would be dog tucker if there were !
Besides, we've already got enough Oz-tralians here - we don't want their damned wildlife too !

Pavlova is a meringue dessert named after the ballet dancer, Anna Pavlova. It is crispy on the outside but light and fluffy inside.

Both New Zealanders and Australians claim the pavlova recipe as their own, but as with the Anzac biscuit, the earliest known books containing the recipe were published in New Zealand.

Pavlova is made by beating egg whites and salt to a very stiff consistency before folding in caster sugar, vanilla, and vinegar, and slow-baking the mixture to create the meringue. This makes the outside of the pavlova a crisp crunchy shell, while the interior remains soft and moist.

Pavlova is traditionally decorated with whipped cream and fresh fruit, notably strawberries, peach slices, passionfruit and/or kiwifruit. Another common topping in Australia is grated Peppermint Crisp, a chocolate bar with peppermint flavouring, and sometimes chocolate chips. Raspberry is a popular topping in the United Kingdom, with the tartness of raspberries contrasting with the sweetness of sugar.
