This morning I had some time to do a little 4th of July baking. I decided to do red, white and blue inspired fruit tarts for this 4th of July. The fresh fruits helps to balance out the healthy and the not so healthy but delicious custard. Confession the pastry is not made from scratch but I did bake it lol This light and yummy dessert is great for 4th of July dessert bars or for guests at dinner or BBQ’s. Ingredients Madagascar Vanilla Custard (Fosters Strand Location Sells It) so yummy! Strawberries Cherries Blueberries Happy Baking! with love, xo
