Pooh Bear Cheese Tart


Piglet: "How do you spell love?"
Pooh: "You don't spell it - you feel it."

Cheese tarts that will melt your heart. It did for me. Too cute to be eaten.

Pineapple Tarts That Melts In Your Mouth


Most of us would think freshly baked pastry are best when they are right out of the oven. But not for these pineapple tarts. They tasted way better the day after.

Ercolini Pear Almond Tart

 
I love tarts. I know I should be making more cookies but I think that tarts are almost...almost like cookies.

A tart consists of a shortcrust pastry, technically is a shortbread cookie, which is topped with a filling. Hahaha...I think I am trying too hard to wiggle myself out of this "cookie and bull" story.

White Nectarine Crumble and Almond Galette




This was baked using the leftover tart dough and frangipane from baking the Autumn Honey Pluots and Almond Tart. The leftover tart dough was not enough to fit a tart ring so I decided to make a free formed tart - a Galette. Rustic looking hey.

Vanilla Creme Brulee Tart



Today is my husband's birthday! He was made to choose between a chocolate cake or a vanilla creme brulee tart. He likes to eat creme brulee and since I rarely make it, it was not a difficult decision to make.

I got the idea of making this tart after tasting one, many moons ago, in a cafe during a gathering with my church friends.

Honey Autumn Plum and Almond Tart





I know that autumn have arrived in the northern hemisphere when I see plums, nectarines and peaches in the supermarkets.

Maple Pecan Pie


Tomorrow is the start of another long weekend! Yay! Labour Day.

My husband have been asking me to make this pie for the longest time. The reason for not baking was that I thought it might be a sugar bomb.

Chocolate Truffle Tart


I made this chocolate truffle tart for the Easter weekends. I decided to try a tart base recipe that uses pate sucree or also known as a sweet tart dough and paired it with a dark chocolate filling. It is my first time making a tart using the pate sucree recipe while I have used the chocolate filling before when i made the chocolate tartlets

The richness of the tart comes from the chocolate filling and the fragrant buttery tart base. The passion fruit curd gives a very refreshing and contrasting dimension to the whole taste experience.

Fruit Tart


This fruit tart was a bake I did as a birthday cake for a friend in church with the help of other cell group members (K and AB) too. The birthday girl loves fruits and was given the title of "fruitarian". 

Happy Birthday, PY!!

Apple Crumble


This week, my cell group craved for apple crumble. As it is on my to-bake list, I decided to make them my guinea pigs. 
The crumble turned out very well and the recipe will be a keeper.

Lemon Curd Tart




It's tart time again. I did a chocolate tart with a digestive biscuit base the last time. This lemon curd tart uses the vanilla butter cookies recipe as its base.

Chocolate Tartlets



Recently, I got myself some small tart molds, planning to make some tarts. There are so many kinds of tarts to make, such as egg tarts, fruit tarts, jam tarts and many more. So I searched on the internet and decided to make this chocolate tart. It was a very good choice. My photography skill did not do the tart justice. The pictures taken by the original blog will make you drool.
