Vacherins with Raspberry Sorbet and Mixed Berry-Cardamom SauceCharles Imstepf

Begin at least a day before you plan to serve the vacherins. (Don't make them on a humid day; moisture prevents meringues from drying properly and staying crisp.) Use a 3 1/2-inch round cookie cutter or a 3 1/2-inch round can to trace the bases.
