TWD: Toasted-Coconut Custard Tart


Since I arrived in Taipei last Tuesday, I've been busy exploring the city as well as tidying up the house. Apart from that, I managed to find a baking supply shop near where I stay and my kitchen is now fully stocked with ingredients and that makes me very happy. ;-)

For TWD this week, Beryl of Cinemon Girl has chosen toasted-coconut custard tart. I was not able to get shredded sweetened coconut and so I used dessicated coconut instead. I made 1/6 of the recipe but I miscalculated the quantity of cornstarch and as a result, the custard was thicker than usual. Nevertheless, I still think that the tart is yummy!

For recipe, head over to Beryl's blog!

How exciting!! Your tart looks great. My custard was super thick too. I had to thin it down and I used exactly what the recipe called for.

I love the shape of your tart. What sort of tin/mold did you use?
All the best in getting adjusted to life in Taiwan!

Beautiful LITTLE tart.

I have those little 'pans' but didn't really know what to use them for. Now I do - thanks.

Glad you are getting settled in. Look forward to stories of your new location.
