Meringue is a delicate and airy confection, created by whisking egg whites with sugar. This creates a stable foam that can be baked into crisp, sweet shells or used as a light and fluffy topping. The texture of meringue can range from soft and pillowy to brittle and crunchy, depending on the preparation method. Its appearance is typically white and glossy, although it can be tinted with food coloring. When baked correctly, meringue offers a delightful melt-in-your-mouth sensation.

Meringues are best stored in an airtight container at room temperature to protect them from moisture. Humidity is their enemy, so avoid refrigerating or freezing them, as this will cause them to become sticky and lose their crisp texture. Properly stored, they can last for several days to a couple of weeks, depending on the humidity levels.
