Baking Challenge

Designer Fruit Tart

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

Fruit Tart with Vanilla Cream Filling – I used a recipe that was really light and fresh. The shortbread crust was not too heavy and the vanilla cream filling was light and fluffy. Perfect dessert for a hot summer day in Wisconsin!

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

Just be patient, take your time and try not to wait until the last minute to finish.

Tell us about how you added a Wisconsin twist.

The recipe I used incorporated sour cream in the crust and sour cream and heavy cream in the filling. You can never have too much dairy!

How did you do?

Pleasantly satisfied.
