Designer Fruit Tart

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

Love in Summer Grain Free/Cane Sugar Free Tart

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

Oh my gosh… caramel is difficult to deal with, especially when you’re making a caramel from something that already has a lot of color. I didn’t have to make eight batches though. 😉 Only two.

Tell us about how you added a Wisconsin twist.

So, it is crazy hot and a lot of this cake is about cool smooth textures. It is light and refreshing on a hot day like we’ve been having. I also used local strawberries in – and on – the tart and local honey to make the caramel art.

How did you do?

Absolutely lovely.
