Eton Mess

Eton Mess is a summer classic – you can’t go wrong! I like to make colourful meringues to go with it, for that extra special touch. Eton Mess traditionally features cream and crushed up meringue – I prefer to serve my meringues on top so that people can crush it all up together themselves. I find it keeps the meringue...

And because the crunchie chunks sit all snuggled up in the cream, the whole cheesecake gets infused with a super scrummy honeycomb taste. Deeeeelish. You will need: 15 digestive biscuits 100g butter 2...
