    Does anyone know what type of cream it is?

    I had leftover pastry from an apple pie so I used that & halved the recipe & it turned out beautiful. Didn't realise how easy they were to make, will be making again.

    CLaidlaw: My chef gave me a tip, leave the plastic over the pastry sheet, and it won’t dry out.

    My chef friend and I found these instructions very confusing. Steps 1,2, 7 and 8 seem to be repeated. I am not sure why steps 7 and 8 are in there. We ended up using a lot more pastry sheets as we didn’t roll them. My Portuguese friend enjoyed the tarts however thought there was more sugar than authentic ones. Next time, I will cut the pastry sheet in half, roll it up, slice it, and roll each segment to size. I will also reduce the sugar. Overall, a nice recipe.

    OMG these are so good. I used vanilla bean paste instead on extract and followed instructions on link. I made custard first and whilst it cooled i made pastry on lighly floured surface, custard was still warm when put in cases. They turned out perfect and will be a regular, so easy. Thank you
