These are the best meringues you will ever make.

And he bakes the most spectacular things for teatime! Here is his Instagram link. https://www.instagram.com/mccormickcharlie/

Thanks Rosemary. Is corn flour the same as corn starch?

This dessert is probably as delicious as it is pretty. Wondering if it is being served with rhubarb. Can't quite make out the pink bits.

Lisa D. -- Yes. You can use corn starch or Arrowroot as substitutes for corn flour. I found a link for 7 substitutes.

I also found a link from King Arthur Flour suggesting Cream of Tartar and lemon juice.

I have seen Bob's Red Mill Corn Flour in my grocery store.

Happy baking! xo, Rosemary

Pam -- I went back to Charlie's Instagram post. Someone asked, "What is the pink?" -- He replied RHUBARB so you are right. xo, Rosemary
