Refine meringue roulade with nuts or chocolate

You can sprinkle the meringue with various nuts before baking. These can include flaked almonds, chopped pistachios or hazelnuts.

They give the meringue roulade a crunchy note. They also make it look even prettier and more unusual.

You can also use chopped nuts or chocolate as a filling in addition to the raspberries. Simply spread them on the cream together with the fruit.

Use fruit of your choice

You can fill this meringue roll with any seasonal fruit you like, just like the Pavlova cake or the swiss cake roll with sour cream. I made it with fresh raspberries. They combine perfectly with the creamy cream cheese filling and the sweet meringue.

Strawberries also go very well with it. Cut them into pieces beforehand. The meringue roulade also tastes delicious with redcurrants, blackberries or cherries.

Alternative cream for the filling

The filling for my raspberry meringue roulade consists of cream cheese and cream, similar to the cream for the Russian cake “Milk girl”, the banana cream cheese cake or the mini Pavlova. It has an airy, creamy consistency and a slightly sour note. As the meringue tastes sweet enough, the cream contains no added sugar.

Alternatively, you can leave out the cream cheese and just whip up a double portion of cream. Or replace cream cheese with mascarpone, quark or sour cream. Sweeten the cream with powdered sugar to your taste.
