To Serve
Here is the easiest way to serve the pavlova: Remove any decorations and the bamboo skewers holding the cake together. Using a sharp knife cut the cake into halves from the top to the bottom, then into quarters. At this stage find the halfway mark of the cake horizontally so that you can remove the top 2 layers of one quarter. Using a cake lifter, carefully remove the portion and place onto another plate. Cut into 3 wedges and place onto serving plates. Cut the remaining 3 top quarters in the same manner. Repeat the cutting process with the bottom quarters.
