32 sweet tarts to brighten your day

Try stopping at just one slice.

Corella pear tarte Tatin
There's a lot that happens when a sweet tart is served up: the beauty of spoon sinking into the top through to the yielding, custardy middle, and the sweet resistance of the golden pastry base. Some like their sweet tarts rich and chocolate-filled; others, tessellated with the best of the season's pickings. Whichever recipe you choose, one thing is for sure: you won't be able to stop at one slice.
