Ready-made tartlet shells
There are 5 products.
With ready-made tartlet shells you can create elegant mini tarts in minutes: the crisp shortcrust cases are already baked and just need filling. No rolling, no blind baking, no shrinking edges – just even, professional-quality shells, ideal for canapés, dessert buffets, weddings or afternoon tea.
Round, rectangular or chocolate
We stock tartlet cases in several sizes: mini Ø 3.8 cm for a single bite, classic Ø 5.3 cm, larger Ø 7 cm for a plated dessert and rectangular shells (5.3 x 2.6 cm) for modern petits fours. The chocolate tartlet shells pair perfectly with ganache, caramel, raspberries or mousse.
Perfect filled tartlets
- For sweet versions, first brush on a thin layer of melted couverture or cocoa butter – the shell stays crisp for longer.
- Fill with crème pâtissière, ganache, lemon curd, fruit filling or buttercream and top with fruit, meringue or decorations.
- Delicious savoury too, with cream cheese, salmon or vegetable cream.
- Fill shortly before serving so the base stays crisp.
