These tarts get rave reviews. In fact, they are so pretty that somebody asked if they were real. Haha! That is when you know your food looks good . . . when people think it is fake!
These tarts are rich. So each one should serve 2-3 people. I made 5 small tarts, each with a generous crust. This recipe can easily make 6 small tarts with slightly thinner crusts.

where do you find Vanilla Bean Paste
Nicole Harris says
You can definitely get it online. Some stores carry it in the gourmet food section. Or, I’ve found it many times at TJ Maxx of all places 🙂
Arlene says
It says serves 10 but it only makes 5 tarts.
Nicole Harris says
These tarts are good sized and rich. My family and friends have a difficult time eating a whole tart so we cut them in half and share. If you are serving 10 people and want each person to have their own tart, feel free to double the recipe 🙂
