Tart a la crème Tea Time

Tart a la crème Tea Time

Level:
Difficult
Inspirations : With the constant overload of today’s world, I wanted to create something that would remind consumers to pause and enjoy the smaller things.  Tea time allows people to treat themselves and disconnect in a luxury food experience with small sweet bites.  I took the tart a la crème and elevated it to tea time level with a twist of flavours; because those who splurge on tea time are open to new ideas. I kept the traditional textures making sure not to lose the classic, but refined it by size, shape and feel.
