Hi, I'm Chef Mercedes. I'm a graduate of the French Culinary Institute/International Culinary Center's classic pastry arts program. Currently I do not work in the food industry so I use this blog to share my love of eating and passion for baking with the world. I hope you’ll enjoy what I have to share about baking and that I’ll inspire you to bake as well.

Tarte Tatin Facon Rapid
Meh. These weren't my favorite. Firstly, I don't love tarte tatins at their best. Secondly, these were not tarte tatins at their best. Yes they had the traditional slightly burnt caramel flavor, there were apples, and they had lovely tart crust bases. However the apples were too soft and overripe and ended up disintegrating making the tarts look messy. Plus the crust was too thin, I think. At least I prefer a thicker crust on a tarte tatin. And the caramel oozed all over the place making them impossible to budge from their cardboard rounds in order to plate them. Granted none of that stopped me from eating one of them, hot out of the oven and right off the cardboard, with dinner!
