  • Preheat the oven to 200° C.
  • Add the butter and sugar to a bowl. Beat on high speed until the mixture is smooth. Once the mixture is creamy (it will have a lighter color), add the eggs one by one, reducing the speed, as we only want the eggs to be integrated.
  • Incorporate the milk and flour, alternating them. Be careful not to overbeat so the mixture doesn't curdle. Finally, fold in the blueberries.
  • Grease and flour a mold, add the preparation, and bake for about 30 minutes. Once cooked, unmold it and allow it to cool.
  • For the Italian meringue: Place the sugar in a pan and cover with water, heat the mixture over medium heat, and it's important not to stir the mixture.
  • Beat the egg whites on high speed until they double in size and are firm.
  • When the caramel forms large, slow bubbles, it is ready. Incorporate it in a thread into the bowl with the egg whites, while continuing to beat.
  • To decorate: add the meringue on top of the pound cake, and decorate with fruits and mint.
