This torte is a showstopper! It's perfect for a party or special occasion. I love the way the meringue peaks and the ganache drips down the sides.

I'm not a big fan of meringue, but this torte is an exception. The meringue is light and airy, and the ganache is rich and chocolatey. The candy bar pieces add a nice touch of sweetness and crunch.

This torte is a bit pricey to make, but it's worth it for a special occasion. I used high-quality chocolate and candy bars, and the flavor was incredible.

This was my first time making a meringue torte and it was a disaster. The meringue was too runny and the ganache was too thick. I'm not sure what I did wrong, but I won't be trying this recipe again.

This torte is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still a delicious dessert. I think I would use less sugar in the meringue next time.

I've made this torte a few times now and it's always a hit. My friends and family rave about it. The only thing I do differently is use a different type of chocolate for the ganache. I prefer a dark chocolate with a higher cacao content.
