A Pastry Experiment

These little adorable tarts.. oh so beautiful tarts.. lala la la.. these tarts makes me sing and imagine that great feeling one feels when we see our creation turned out beautifully and artistically!

It was my first real venture on the pastry side. Yeah, yeah, I did a little cheat.. awryt, half of it was a cheat! I didn't have an oven for my perusal yet.. but that didn't stop me from wondering what beautiful creations I could make.. Eventually, the wondering led to something.. led to these..





A little bit of history first, if I may.. I found this bakeshop that sells beautiful breads and other goodies that for the price it present, is already a real good deal (is my penny-pinching getting real obvious na ba? hehehe). So, i grab a few of those beautiful tarts they sell and added own fruity touch to it.. It added sweetness and freshness to the egg tart and at the same time, I created a whole new tart variety.


You'll Need:
Egg Tarts - You can buy "ready-made" like what I did or if resources will permit it, you can make your own.
5 tbsp of freshly squeezed Orange juice -if you want the tart to be a little more juicy, you can add more..
1 tbsp of Lemon juice
1 tbsp of Orange zest
1 ripe Mango, diced
1 ripe Apple, diced
2 tbsp brown sugar


You'll Do:
In a nonstick pan, add the brown sugar and juices and let the mixture simmer and make sure that all the brown sugar has been dissolved. Once you see little bubbles appearing, add the zests and apples. Let it simmer under medium fire for 2-3 minutes or until the apples become soft.
Let the mixture cool down before you add the mangoes. 
Add the fruits and juice to the tarts, depends on you if you want more or less. I would recommend for it to be a little juicy though so be generous in adding the juices.


Serve with a smile.
