This dish, to me, is an assembly of wonderful sweet friends. Having one slab of meringue means serving it is dead easy. Feel free to make up your own topping combinations. Other good ones I really like are chestnut purée mixed with cream and chocolate, or other soft fruits with praline, or mixed toasted nuts and cream.
