Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 225°F (110°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, whip the egg whites on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar, increasing to high speed until stiff peaks appear.
  3. Sift in cornstarch and cream of tartar, then fold gently with a spatula. Add rose extract and mix until incorporated.
  4. Transfer the meringue mixture into a piping bag and pipe onto the prepared tray in desired shapes with indents in the center.
  5. Bake for 1 to 1.5 hours until dry and crisp without browning.
  6. Turn off the oven and let the meringues cool inside to prevent cracking.
  7. Whip the cream until soft peaks form. Sweeten to taste.
  8. Once cooled, fill each meringue with whipped cream and top with seasonal fruits or compotes. Serve immediately.
