how to cook a Raspberry Tart

What's your favorite berry? Mine's raspberries. I always thought Waverley Root described raspberries perfectly, "rich, exotic, spice-laden and with a hint of musk". This Raspberry Tart is a nice way to bake with raspberries. It takes ruby red raspberries and arranges them in concentric circles on top of a crisp and buttery pastry. Nothing else is needed, save a sprinkling of sugar. It is excellent warm from the oven with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream.

hoaw to cook a Blackberry Tart

My introduction to tart making began about 15 years ago when I took a week long patisserie class at London's Le Cordon Bleu. During that week we learned how to make all kinds of tarts; lemon, chocolate, almond, apple, and fruit. My favorite, by far, was the fruit tart. Even today I love the combination of a sweet buttery crust, a rich silky cream, and juicy ripe fruit. And I especially like glazing the fruit with jam, as it makes the tart almost sparkle.

White Cupcakes Recipe

Cupcakes are described as individual cakes that are baked in muffins cups lined with paper or foil baking cups. They come in a variety of flavors and are usually frosted with colored icing and garnished with sprinkles. While this definition sounds about right it does not describe how delightful cupcakes look and how delicious they taste. As you have probably noticed cupcakes have taken the country by storm. Bakeries offer us every possible flavor combination you can imagine, but the classic sweet and buttery White Cupcake frosted with swirls of creamy smooth Confectioners Frosting remains a favorite.
