What is a tart?

➡️ A tart is a baked dish consisting of a filling over a pastry base with an open-top not covered with pastry. The filling may be sweet or savory, though modern tarts are usually fruit-based. A tartlet is a small tart, and egg tarts are an example. “Tart”, “flan”, “quiche”, and “pie” overlap and don’t have clear distinctions. There are lots of different kinds of tarts, some popular ones being Treacle tart, meringue tart, tart Tatin, and Bakewell tart. A jam tart is a type of tart that has jam instead of fresh fruit.

Tips For The French Strawberry Tart Recipe

➡️ French tart is one of the homemade cake recipes that I like to make with fresh fruits and especially strawberries. So, when comes spring, I make strawberry tart at least once but usually more times along this time frame.

➡️ As you probably know, most such tart recipes feature vanilla custard filling and just a strawberry layer on top. My tart is actually a strawberry cream cake recipe because it features not just a fresh strawberry layer but also a strawberry cream filling! For this reason, it’s a unique strawberry cake recipe that is worth learning, and make it as many times as you can!

➡️ Preparing this strawberry cream cake recipe is pretty easy, even if it takes some time. If you don’t have too much time at your disposal, you could buy the tart crust from the store and make just the cream filling and garnishing. If so, you can skip the steps from 13 to 24 and save time.

➡️ This strawberry cream cake or strawberry tart, no matter how do you want to call it, is both spectacular and delicious! I use the red cake gelee both to improve the cake look and avoid fresh strawberry oxidation, which makes strawberry slices brown and gives an unpleasant look.

➡️ A final tip, this strawberry cream cake can be kept 1-2 days in the fridge before serving, so you can make with a day in advance when you’re expecting guests or organizing an event at home.
