It's difficult to think of anything but happy thoughts while eating a strawberry tart...

Because I spend more time than most baking sweet things I don't often buy cakes and stuff like that. However one afternoon I was passing by Carluccio's in Islington when I saw a mini strawberry tart that I just couldn't pass by.

A delicious shortcrust pastry with a mascarpone cheese filling, it was literally the most delicious thing ever. It was so good that I actually felt guilty as I sat at my desk eating & enjoying, like I should really be having this much fun in private :).

I had to recreate this again & I used a mascarpone cream icing to fill the flan then topped it with fresh British strawberries and a jam glaze.... Delicious.
