Lately, I have been toying with different ideas on what to bake this season. There are many beautiful fall flavors this season that are all very comforting with rich spice and very intoxicating aroma and yet, somehow I decided to go with Nigella Lawson’s chocolate raspberry pavlova. I know that this has nothing to do with my whole fall flavor them. But for me, just one bite of this babies makes me fell all warm and fuzzy inside. Which I think it’s the whole point. I just couldn’t help but make this over the weekend.
I did however make two small changes (variation):
1. I made individual ones instead of making a whole pavlova.
2. I substitute the whipped cream for vanilla ice cream.
I have to say how much I love the whole chocolate and raspberry pair in this pretty little dessert. They do play very well together and I wouldn’t change that at all.

I have never made a pavlova. How scrumptious! It looks beautiful too. Thanks for sharing.
Great job with the Pavlova… I hear they’re really hard to make!
I have never made pavlova…but I sure enjoy eating it! Yours turned out just beautifully especially with the berries on top! Fresh whipped cream and raspberries can make any dessert extraordinary (not that your pavlovas needed help!) Thanks for sharing!
Pavlova’s are so beautiful and such an elegant way to end a meal. I like the idea of individual ones and the addition of chocolate will be a hit as well.
That made me hungry. Individual serving is fantastic idea. Fresh berries ……….. drooling!
Your pic looks wonderful! Chocolate and raspberries go very well together. I also like chocolate cake with raspberry syrup!
Thank you for making this! I have wanted to make this for absolutely ages, was thinking of making it for Christmas 🙂
They look so yummy. 🙂 I must try the recipe. Great photos
Very elegant and very beautiful.
Those pavlova look divine! What a droolworthy combination.
Cheers,
Rosa
The pavlova look wonderful! Chocolate and raspberry…wow…you definitely know how to pamper yourself. :-))
I’ve never heard of pavlova before. Is that silly? Looks delicious and fluffy though. Can’t go wrong with those toppings!
These are so gorgeous. Pavlovas are like mini meringues? The fresh raspberries and dark chocolate are such a great pair.
Wonderful idea to make mini pavs – they look fantastic
Wow…that looks amazing, I have tried to make meringues but it was a bit of a disaster. LOL yours look perfect.
This looks too beautiful to eat. Pavlovas are on my to-make list. I’ve never tried making them before. I think I would start with these because the chocolate and raspberry combination just sounds so good.
This is gorgeous and way more fancy then anything that I would ever attempt! Very nice 🙂
woof! that look sooooooooooooo GOOD!!
was it easy to bake?!
Oh yum!! I could eat this right now!!
Good Lawd, those are incredible looking! You are really a masterful baker. I’m super super impressed!
As much as Autumn is my favourite season…I have yet been able to get into the mood to post anything on the subject. I still have my tastebuds on desserts somewhat like yours ;o)
Here’s looking forward to getting in sync with the seasons ;o)
Flavourful wishes,

Don’t you just love Nigella! The pavlova looks INCREDIBLE! I’ve never made it with chocolate before.

What a delicious combination of flavours in a pavlova. Gorgeous pics too. I’m trying this one.
I have never made a pavlova either, but yours looks delicious! Chocolate and raspberry is such a wonderful combination…you can’t go wrong 🙂

I was just talking to a friend last night and she said her favorite dessert is pavlova. After seeing this, I can tell why!
How beautiful is this?! I find it refreshing you didn’t go w/a typical fall dessert here, a little something different and like you said you captured the warm and fuzzy! Amazing photos!
I love individual desserts.. these looks delicious! I made pavlovas for the daring bakers a while back.. they’re soo good!
Ooh, I’ve never made pavlova before. Yours look so good though-like a crispy outside with a soft center. Yum!
Your pavlovas are really lovely! I’ve never made chocolate pavlovas but I would love to. They look perfect topped with the raspberries!
You brought back good memories; made pavlova years ago; YOu are tempting me with the chocolate and I find individual must be so much nicer especially with the raspberries; my favourite berries.
These are beautiful! Your pictures rock too! Love the slight cracking on them. Nothing I made turns out this pretty! Thanks!
This one looks awesome!! Perfect Pavlovas!
Your pavlova is gorgeous! Who cares if it’s a traditional fall flavour if it tastes and looks that good!
A sweet indulgence, lovely recipe.
Beautiful photos! The pavlova looks great!
these look so yummy! I’ve made meringue shells many times, but never used this raspberry/chocolate combo…it looks incredible!
love,
Cathy B. @ brightbakes
