About Manchester tart

Manchester Tart is a classic British dessert originating from the North West of England. This indulgent treat features a base of buttery shortcrust pastry layered with raspberry jam, creamy custard, and a topping of desiccated coconut—often garnished with a maraschino cherry. Known for its sweet and rich flavor, the tart encapsulates traditional British baking techniques and flavors. While the custard provides a source of calcium and protein thanks to the milk and eggs, Manchester Tart is high in sugar and saturated fats, making it more of an occasional indulgence than a health-conscious choice. Its nostalgic appeal and versatility have made it a comfort food staple, celebrated for its simple preparation and delightful combination of textures. Perfect for teatime or as a dessert, Manchester Tart invites a taste of regional heritage with every slice.
