Fruit tart........my style.

An intimate dinner with family and friends wouldn't be perfect without desserts or seasonal fresh fruits. With so much luscious fresh fruits available in the supermarket, I had a difficult time choosing which one to bring home. Finally, I brought them all.

Fruit tart is on the top list when I think about colorful desserts that can be easily served and prepared in advance.The perfect fruit tart starts with the crisp and buttery crust and ends up with beautiful fresh fruits. I love the the crust of my tart to be as thin as possible.

The most labor-intensive step for fruit tart (for me) is making the crust from scratch, but it's worth making the extra effort. The mixing process is done in food processor. Not a nice looking crust as the storebought tart, but the taste and texture is up to expectation.

Besides being rich in nutrients, these bright-colored fruits provide the perfect flavors for desserts. Strawberries are famously delicious with whipped cream,but they are more versatile than that.

I chose whipped cream for the filling since we will enjoy it at home. I made crust in advance and then fill the whipped cream and decorate with frsh fruits just before serving.

I normally don't glaze the fruits....it's another way to reduce unnecessary sugar intake. The flavour of fresh fruits is perfect on its own, I think. However, if there is a showmanship involved, you can glaze your fruits with apricot jam for a shinny look like those in the bakery store.

My fruit tart....small in size but big in flavour!
