Please join me at www.pastrieslikeapro.com for my new blog featuring pastry and baking from my bakery of 23 years and my experience as a Pastry Chef for a 4 star, 4 diamond restaurant. 

Welcome to the blog that holds the how-to photographs for the book “European Tarts”. Just click on the photo of the recipe in the book you are interested in and it will automatically take you to that set of photographs.

While the pans used in this book are tart pans with removable bottoms, a shallow pie pan can be used with no change in the recipe or the directions.  A glass version of this pie pan shown below in “Tart Pan Substitution” can be found at Walmart for less than $3.00.
