I love raspberries, never can get enough. It is the cherished fruit of my childhood. Raspberries and almonds are a perfect marriage made in Heaven. There is no change you have to make to this dessert. If it is not broken do not fix it. DO not mess with something that works :o)

    Make the meringue with an electric mixer by startings to whip the whites with the cream of tartar and little by little add the sugar. When making a meringue you have to have patience other wise do not dare to make one...It takes time! Whip the sugar well every time you add it. Add about 3TBS each time. Every time I make a meringue it takes me at least 20 minutes. I love mine real glossy and of course with all the sugar well incorporated and dissolved. That is the key of a successful meringue.
