Pavlova is a meringue dessert claimed by both Australia and New Zealand. The dish is said to have been named after Anna Pavlova, a Russian Ballet dancer, who was on tour in 1926 and 1929. Anna Pavlova was a famous ballerina and her dances are best described as light and airy, similar to the dessert.
Research indicates that the pavlova was originally from New Zealand. The Australian claim is that it was invented by a Perth chef in 1935; New Zealand claims are based on a recipes in a magazine and a cookery book from 1929 and 1933, with additional reports from a biographer stating that it was invented in 1926 after Anna Pavlova's visit.
Rivalry between the two countries regarding the origin of the pavlova has continued for decades - and will probably continue for many more. The article at the link below concedes that the dessert now known as the pavlova most likely originated in New Zealand, but that the actual name of Pavlova, after Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova, was bestowed upon it by a Perth chef.

New Zealand, but Australians try to claim it..

Ask an Australian and they'll say Australia. Ask a Kiwi and they'll say New Zealand. The answer is: Australia.
The dessert Pavlova was named after a Russian Ballet dancer Anna Pavlova who visited Australia and New Zealand in the 1920s. There is confusion and argument over whether the dessert is originally from Australia or New Zealand. It was a tradition to name desserts after famous opera or ballet stars. A version of the dessert was named after Anna Pavlova in both Wellington NZ, Perth Australia and Melbourne Australia but desserts made from Meringue filled with fruit and cream were around for a long time in both countries (and elsewhere) before that. So it is unlikely that there will ever be a proven answer to this question.
