Meringue cake topped with whipped cream and fruit, named after a Russian ballerina (7)

I believe the answer is:

pavlova

(Other definitions for pavlova that I've seen before include "Surname of ballerina" , "Sweet - dancer" , "Meringue-based dessert" , "course" , "Sweet dish named after a ballerina" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
