Berry Tartlets 

These Berry Tartlets are petite, elegant treats that bring together flaky, golden pastry with the sweet-tart burst of fresh berries. Their rustic charm makes them equally fitting for casual afternoon tea or festive holiday tables. Using simple ingredients like refrigerated pie crust and seasonal berries, they’re easy to prepare but look impressive enough to wow guests. Each bite delivers contrast: buttery crust, syrupy berry filling, and a delicate dusting of powdered sugar. Best of all, they’re endlessly customizable—use whatever berries you have on hand, or add citrus zest for an extra flavor lift.

Ingredients (Makes ~6 Tartlets)

• 4 cups mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
