Baking Challenge

Designer Fruit Tart

Give your tarts a name based on the flavors and decoration – and tell us about your recipe.

Bursting with flavor. Decided to make a lemon curd tart with a blueberry firework.

Now that you survived this challenge, what words of wisdom do you have to share?

Do not use graham cracker crust with lemon curd. It tasted great but graham crackers soaked up the curd making a flat tart.

Tell us about how you added a Wisconsin twist.

Local eggs for lemon curd, blueberries and cherries and, of course, whipping cream!

How did you do?

It’s not pretty, but it’s edible.
