Merengue (span. Merengue, fr. Meringue or baiser (a kiss) says of Bulgarian *tseluvchena mixture* and the finished product - a kiss.

This is my favorite desserts and at the first opportunity I will try to prepare it. So far I've only had it in restaurants and often seems too sweet. With this sweet recipe you going? To know whether to reduce the sugar (I think it's pretty).

I am still not too sweet, and not all that much sugar in the recipe. Can eventually reduce it a bit in the cream. You add a little bit and try how it tastes.

Vanya, thanks for the help!
