Mix sugar and water in a small saucepan over a medium heat, use baking thermometer to control temperature of the liquid.
Start to whisk the egg whites slowly either in a stand mixer or with a hand-held electric whisk until it starts to form into a foam.
Heat the sugar until it reaches 121°C then slowly pour into the egg whites still whisking.
Turn the mixer to the full speed and whisk until cooled to room temperature – the meringue cream is now ready to use
Use piping bag with stainless nozzles to decorate cooled crows as shown on the picture.
Give meringue a quick torch or pop the crowns under a medium grill for a few minutes for the same effect.
Garnish with seasonal fresh berries and top with powdered sugar (optional). Serve on the dark or pastel color plate for more premium look.
TIPS: For an extra flavor in meringue cream, add a dash of rosewater, orange, vanilla, peppermint or any other essence to the water to create unique aroma.
