Late last week, my family came over in celebration on my moms birthday. It was my very first time planning a legitimate, grown-up, sit down dinner party for a decent number of people and I’m happy to say that it went off without a hitch. Though the main course is naturally important, if you ask me, dessert is always the star of the show, and with that the pressure was on. I wanted to present something classic and sophisticated, preferably individually portioned for quick and easy delivery and (even quicker clean up). In came this recipe for pear and cinnamon frangipane tartlets. The results were as delicious as they are beautiful, and it’s safe to say that my mom was one very happy lady.
That looks gorgeous and I bet it tastes the same! :-)
They were pretty great, I must say
omg these look incredible!
Thanks Ana! I’m pretty proud of how they turned out!
They were positively YUMMY!!!

Your cooking photos always come out so gorgeous. These look yummy!
Aww… thanks love!
These would make such a lovely treat at a dinner party. I love pears!
Those are absolutely gorgeous photos and I bet they taste even more delicious than they look! I’m glad to hear the party went so well! Sounds like a blast!
It was fun! More dinner parties are required for sure!
Yay for grown up dinner parties! Dying to do this but need more dining chairs first. ;)
haha baby steps!

Every time you do a recipe post, I swoon over your wooden dining table. Seriously, is it not the most beautiful AND perfect-for-photos piece of furniture?
These are gorgeous! Absolutely stunning. I can’t wait to try making these. :)
These are stunning! I made these with marzipan for a christmas party before leaving St. Andrews for break. Perfect winter treats.
