No-Bake Pavlova Cake

Ballet is a great art. I have always admired the fine lines of the body, weightless jumps and an amazing ability to show emotions through moving. In this sense, I am a tree. In the ballet, like in the pictures, there are iconic characters and outstanding personalities.

Her contemporaries are gone long time ago, photos are faded away and the name is lost in the archives of history. But the cake, named in her honor, has become a classic and well-known dessert.
