19 Reviews of Five Star White Chocolate Fruit Tart

This recipe is great. I was worried about the crust making because I had never made tarts before, but everything turned out just fine. Just some tips for those who have never made tarts before - 1) I used a removable bottom tart pan. 2) I used regular Pam cooking spray to grease all sides of the pan. 3) Even though you press the crust up the sides of the pan, they're going to slide down while baking (they did this whether or not I greased the pan). It's okay - there will still be a slight dip in the middle of the tart and the filling is thick enough that you don't need the sides to be very high. I kind of worried about this when I saw that my sides had pretty much leveled out but everything turned out just great so don't sweat it. 4) Don't remove the tart crust from the pan until after you've put the filling in and chilled it (step 10). Thanks for a great recipe!

    Made this for dessert on Christmas day and it was loved by all. The pastry was the easiest I've ever prepared, and the finished dish tasted great. I used strawberries, mango, seedless sultana grapes and Kiwi fruit, and glazed the fruit with some melted apricot jam. Thanks for posting Geema!

    We loved it. Just to let you know, I had to use a 9.5" tart pan and it turned out fine, just had to bake a bit longer, of course.

    This was fantastic. Made it for company and used strawberries, kiwis and apricots for the fruit. I also melted a little apricot jam and brushed it over the fruit to add a bit of shine. Thanks Geema!

    This tart was absolutely wonderful and easy to make!!! I have tried other tarts, but the crust always would get soggy. I used Dr. Oetker's glaze (in a small packet) over the top and it made it nice and shiny like the tarts you see in European bakeries. I have made this tart 4 times now and everytime it is completely gobbled up. I highly recommend this recipe!! Very easy, perfect and delicious!!!

    What I loved the most about this recipe is how elegant it seems without hardly any work. This is a delicious, no fuss, but company worthy tart! I followed the recipe exactly except used a 12 inch tart pan instead of the pizza pan. Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe!

    Without a doubt, this is a 5 star recipe! I too added a bit of shine but, with apple jelly that I melted down. Thank you for this wonderful addition to my recipe box!

    A big hit at my daughter's baby shower. I had to take it out of the fridge ahead of time recommended, but no problem. I used strawberries, blueberries, raspberries and blackberries. I can't wait to make another--maybe I will try to design something with the fruit on top to fit the theme of the party. I used 1/4 cup strawberry jam and 1 TB orange juice for the glaze. I heated the jam in the microwave for 20 seconds--then stirred in the OJ.
