TOP TIP – according to a few forums it is best to bake at 110°C (225°F) for 90 minutes -2 hours. I have had a few readers experience issues with baking at my suggested temperature of 90°C (195°F) which I haven’t had any issues with, having tested this recipe extensively. If in doubt bake at this slightly higher temperature.s

If you are using a fan forced oven the recommendation is to reduce the temperature by 15-20 degrees. I prefer to turn the fan off when making pavlova or macarons.

Oops!

I didn't spot the word 'fan' in your post.

The temperatures above should be 130C, 120C, 110C (reducing to 80C) and 100C, respectively. So it looks like your guess of 150C is rather high!

I always do mine at 130 fan.

[jennyjoan]

ok - am doing one shortly and at 130. Thanks for your answers.
