I would suggest a parchment paper, it’s better than wax paper but to make sure spray a little shortening.

One cannot do away with cream of tartar when making brazo de mercedes.
Aside from the air incorporated while beating the egg whites with sugar serving as it’s leavening agent, cream of tartar aids and stabilizes the meringue.

Should you run out of cream of tartar just remember this formula:
Mix 1 part baking powder + 1 part baking soda = cream of tartar!!!!
since the recipe requires 1/2 tsp cream of tartar, simply proceed to measure 1/2 tsp.
Just make sure u mix both baking powder and baking soda well before doing so.

Hope this tip will help yeddahand John Henry……happy baking!

I’m also interested to know if meringue can be cooked using turbo boiler.. I just hope someone can answer this. I believe you can also try this using conventional oven or oven toaster.

It’s okay if you don’t have confectioners’ sugar, however if your meringue’s done and you’ll put the custard inside and roll it, it’ll be hard ‘cos it’s sticky.

grease the surface of your wax paper more, so it will not stick on your wax paper.
