Note on storage: Kabboord says it's best to make the pavlova a day before you serve it but it will keep for up to two days in an airtight container at room temperature. Don't refrigerate it.

How do you store pavlova overnight?

We suggest "overwrapping" where the clingfilm is wrapped over the top of the meringue and underneath to bottom of the baking sheet, to make it as airtight as possible. Leftovers of the assembled pavlova should be stored in the fridge and are best eaten within 24 hours.

Can pavlova be served the next day?

Serve your pavlova within 2 days after making it.

If you store your pavlova in an airtight container or wrap it well in cling film, it should keep its taste and texture for up to 2 days. The pavlova will taste best if eaten the day after you make it.
