About Custard tart

Custard tart is a traditional dessert enjoyed in various cuisines, with notable origins in European baking, particularly English and Portuguese traditions. It features a crisp, buttery pastry shell filled with a smooth custard made from eggs, milk or cream, sugar, and vanilla or nutmeg for added flavor. Portuguese "pastéis de nata" are a famous variation, often caramelized on top for extra sweetness. While custard tarts are rich in protein from the eggs and calcium from milk, they also tend to be high in sugar, fats, and calories due to their creamy filling and pastry base. Moderation is key when enjoying this indulgent treat. Often served warm or cold, custard tarts are celebrated for their velvety texture and balance of sweetness and spice, making them a delightful addition to festive gatherings or afternoon tea.
