When does defrosted chicken need to be cooked by?
If you are asking "Can chicken that has been frozen be defrosted and cooked?" then the answer is yes. If you are asking if chicken that has been frozen, defrosted, refrozen and defrosted again can be cooked than the answer is yes but it's not safe. When you freeze food water crystals expand and damage cells. When you defrost your food, particularly if you leave it on the counter instead of in the fridge bacteria causing microorganisms have the chance to multiple. When you then refreeze it even larger ice crystals are formed destroying even more cell membranes. After this you defrost it again and the microorganisms from before can double. Usually at this point the meat doesn't look or smell so great.

You mustn't refreeze it. If it's raw meat, you can cook it and then freeze it. If it was already cooked, again, you can't refreeze it. You'll be able to keep it for a couple of days in the refrigerator after it's defrosted, but you'll probably end up having to chuck done away. Check your household insurance, a lot of policies cover this and will pay out.

Can pavlova be frozen?
No. Definitely not. My family has been freezing Pavalova's since we started eating them. For Christmas, we cook too much and eat not enough and therefore freeze them. They are exactly the same once defrosted but it's not a good idea to freeze them and then deforst them and freeze them again. When freezing them, put them in 'meal sizes' so you're not getting the whole Pavalova out and having to worry about ruining it from defrosting it.
