To see how to make these ingredients into the dessert you mustgo here and try not to faint.

What a lot of faffing around. And what a lot of ingredients which don't live in my kitchen.
I won't be rushing out to buy them either. Or spending an afternoon (at least) of my life attempting this dessert. Some chefs are just plain weird...
what El Chi said.
Pumpkin butter and thyme is not a pav.
EC, didn't you love the fact that not only you had to put it in a glass bowl but then put the bowl in a wooden box.
Annie O, the judges raved over the flavours and Emma won because her meringue ingredient was crisper than Lynton's but his was actually better presnted except his meringue didn't make a noise when the spoon hit it.
I'm lucky to open a packet of biscuits without disaster.
I read the ingredients and that's enough for me, I'm not going "there" to see what they do with them.
No way.
Just give me a regular pavlova with whipped cream, strawberries, kiwi fruit and bananas. Ta very much. Oh, and a spoon....
All in the taste, I suppose, but I cannot imagine how such ingredients could work together.
River, you should click and see how much work went into this crap.
Andrew, I couldn't imagine how it all came together either. I'm surprised you didn't watch the finale, Lynton was just your type, breathing.
