they are about 1cm or less in diameter, of the normal meringue recipe. I have a new oven and the first batch are quite brown - hesitating to do a second batch. Any recommendations for the cooking time at 120C? And how do I tell when they are cooked. Feeling all confused at present. Many thanks.

My recipe says 1-1.5 hours at 120 but not to let them go brown. Mine are about 4-5 cm across and I cooked them for 1 hour 15 mins. They are not brown but are soft on the bottom. I put them straight onto a greased tray. Do other people use baking paper? It is hard to decide when they are cooked. Perhaps I should have given them another 15 mins. They won't go to waste. Fine for Eton Mess type desserts

I make hundreds of mini meringue kisses at work. Generally cook at 100deg for about 1.5 hours
