Shortcrust Tarts: 10 Artisan Recipes with Fruit, Cream and Almond Frangipane
Our collection includes 10 handcrafted shortcrust tarts made with our own signature pastry recipe. The base is a delicate, crisp shortcrust pastry with very little sugar, designed to support creamy fillings, fresh fruit and almond frangipane while staying perfectly crisp after baking.
The collection includes classic favourites such as Lemon Tart, Cheese Tart and Apple Tart, alongside recipes with pecans, pears, chocolate and seasonal fruit. Every filling is prepared from scratch using homemade pastry cream, fresh seasonal fruit, real butter and quality chocolate, without artificial flavourings or additives.
Most of our tarts are prepared to order. We usually have only one or two tarts available in the shop each day, while seasonal flavours change throughout the year.
Most tarts contain gluten, eggs and dairy. Some recipes also contain tree nuts. Full allergen information is available on each product page.
Our 10 Shortcrust Tart Flavours
Berry Tart
A crisp shortcrust pastry layered with chocolate caramel and roasted nuts, followed by homemade pastry cream and topped with fresh berries. The result is a beautiful balance of crunchy pastry, silky cream and fresh fruit acidity.
Lemon Tart
Our classic Lemon Tart combines crisp shortcrust pastry with homemade lemon curd made from fresh lemon juice and zest. It is finished with lightly toasted Italian meringue for the perfect balance of citrus freshness and sweetness.
Cheese Tart
Unlike a traditional cheesecake, this tart is baked on a delicate shortcrust base. The filling combines cream cheese, eggs and cream for a smooth baked texture, finished with fresh strawberries and a strawberry glaze made with agar-agar and natural fruit.
Fig and Seasonal Fruit Tart
A buttery shortcrust tart filled with almond frangipane and fresh seasonal fruit. Depending on the season, we prepare it with figs, peaches, plums or other ripe fruit. The almond cream adds richness while highlighting the fruit.
Pecan Tart
Our signature pecan tart features almond frangipane baked inside crisp shortcrust pastry and topped with whole pecans. As the tart bakes, the pecans become lightly caramelised and wonderfully aromatic.
Apple Tart
A traditional Apple Tart with plenty of fresh apples baked inside crisp shortcrust pastry and finished with a lattice crust. It is juicy inside, crisp outside and lets the apples remain the star of the dessert.
Pear Tart
Homemade pastry cream, fresh pears and toasted sliced almonds come together on our shortcrust pastry. This tart is delicate, elegant and naturally less sweet than many classic desserts.
Pumpkin Tart
The only tart in this collection made with homemade puff pastry instead of shortcrust pastry. Roasted pumpkin and prunes create a warm autumn filling enclosed beneath a second layer of flaky pastry.
Chocolate & Banana Tart
A chocolate shortcrust pastry layered with slow-cooked dulce de leche, butter-sautéed bananas and a light chocolate mousse. Rich, indulgent and full of chocolate and caramel flavour.
Seasonal Fruit Tart
Every season we create a tart using the freshest fruit available, including peaches, apricots, plums and other seasonal fruit. All seasonal tarts are made with our signature shortcrust pastry and almond frangipane.
Tarts for Every Occasion
Our shortcrust tarts are perfect for birthdays, family lunches, celebrations or simply sharing for dessert. Seasonal fruit tarts change throughout the year according to the availability of fresh fruit.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between a tart and a cheesecake?
A tart is made with a crisp shortcrust pastry base, while a cheesecake has a completely different recipe and texture.
Why does your shortcrust pastry contain so little sugar?
It's our own recipe. We prefer the sweetness to come from the filling, fruit or almond frangipane rather than from the pastry itself.
Are seasonal fruit tarts available all year?
No. Lemon, Cheese, Apple and Pecan tarts are available year-round, while Fig, Peach, Plum and Pumpkin tarts are prepared only during their season.
