A chocolate shell holds a spiced chocolate ganache. Poached Seckel pears, Hardy kiwis, persimmon, pomegranate, plum, figs, and asian pears adorn this seasonal beauty. This tart was served with a honey and spice Mascarpone cream. A perfect dessert to showcase the season’s finest offerings.

    Even though it does look too beautiful to eat, I ate it and it was savored every bite! Sorry to make anyone jealous, but it was delicious! I don’t know how I got so lucky as to marry a talented pastry chef.

    I’m a bit late, I know, but this is one of the most stunning pieces of pastry I’ve ever seen. It reminds me of the jeweled trees in the story of Aladdin.
