The Merveilleux recipe
A merveilleux is a traditional Belgian pastry consisting of two or three slices of meringue, an airy whipped cream (often vanilla- or chocolate-flavoured) and chocolate shavings or other fillings. Meringues are often flavoured with vanilla or almond and are crunchy on the outside but soft and melty on the inside. The name of this dessert probably comes from its wonderful ('merveilleux' in French) light texture and delicious flavour. A merveilleux is a simple pastry to make but offers an unforgettable taste experience.
