Ah, the humble pavlova. Whether you think its origins come from Australia or New Zealand (it’s Australia, by the way) there’s no denying it’s a staple come summertime. But if you’ve ever tried making one from scratch, you’d know firsthand just how much sugar is hiding inside.
That’s why we decided to Nexba-fy this classic recipe and make it totally sugar free! We’ve added powdered erythritol in place of sugar, which is made from fermenting the sweet, natural starches in fruits like pears and melons. You can usually find it in the baking aisle of your local supermarket and it’s the perfect natural sweetener to make your pav sing.
The best part? Nobody will know it’s sugar free! Let your friends and family wonder in amazement with this clever sugar-free alternative.

Erythritol
Weird name, epic natural sweetener! Erythritol is made from the sweet, natural starches in fruits like pears and melons. It's a little less sweet than normal sugar, but it has a similar taste and texture. So it feels like sugar in your mouth and has no bitter aftertaste. Great!
