Eton mess is a traditional English dessert consisting of a mixture of strawberries or other berries, meringue and whipped cream. It is believed to originate from Eton College and is served at the annual cricket match against the pupils of Harrow School.
This dessert can be prepped ahead of time and kept in the refrigerator for 3 days. The meringue becomes slightly more squiggly the longer it is stored, otherwise if you prefer a crisper meringue eat straight away. These are a fantastic no fuss way to take advantage of all the amazing British berries we have during the summer months.
This kit makes 4 large Eton Mess' in tumbler glasses. Alternatively you can make mini portions in our ramekins, which are the perfect treat for all those summer BBQ's.

Instructions
Place a raspberry powder sachet, 15g of sugar, 8g of agar agar and 50ml water into a small bowl. Leave aside to form a compote.
Leave some of the best looking berries aside for decorating and then cut the remainder into quarters and add them to the bowl with the remaining 15g sugar. Stir until well combined and then let sit.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream and the remaining 15g of sugar. Beat on medium speed until soft peaks form.
Place 3 meringues into a sealable plastic bag and coarsely crush with a rolling pin or the bottom of a heavy glass. Next, fold the broken meringue into the whipped cream. Break the remaining meringue into various-sized pieces.
Mix the compote with the cut berries and sugar.
In small tumbler glasses, layer the compote, fresh berries, cream and broken meringue creating as many layers as you want.
Top with broken meringue and the reserved decorative berries.
Serve immediately or chill for up to 3 days. Enjoy!
