Coffee meringue
The structure of these 'biscuits' resembles that of oasis. Oasis is the element that flowers can be stuck into when making a floral arrangement. Extremely light and airy structure as a component of a coffee dessert or to fill with a ganache of coffee and chocolate.
Makes 300 to 400 pieces.
