Meringue used to be my favorite when I was little. It is a type of dessert made from whipped egg whites and sugar. In the Philippines, meringue is a popular kiss-shaped dessert available in almost all bakeshops and sari-sari stores. Its melt-in-your-mouth goodness makes the whole family love it.
Meringue is fun to make, easy to bake and a guilt-free treat. Try it!
