Getting an early start on spring by taste testing fruit tarts
Sweet Cakes This was the most unique tart of the bunch, and it was what one staffer called “the best taste test item... of all time.” That’s high praise coming from our SO family. The tart’s lemon filling really complemented the fresh, ripe strawberries that sat atop a thin white chocolate layer and a delectable short bread cookie crust. The fresh taste was as sweet as strawberry lemonade on a hot summer day. 1227 Kingstown Rd., Wakefield. 789-5420

Scrumptions The traditional rainbow of fruit did not disappoint here. The addition of mandarin oranges made a unique tartness that complemented the thick custard filling. The crispy crust held up well against the toppings and really let the fruit shine in this tart. 5600 Post Rd., East Greenwich. 884-0844

Belmont Market This local fresh grocer used a mellow graham cracker crust on this tart to set the stage for the luscious fruit and light, airy vanilla custard. Topped with berries galore, and even a slice of star fruit, this fresh confection will be sure to impress your family and friends. 600 Kingstown Rd., Wakefield. 783-4656

Dave's Marketplace Sweet peaches were the special twist in this assortment of fruit toppings. They added an aromatic component that blended perfectly with the smooth vanilla custard filling. The crust was a great tasting blend that reminded us of sugar cookies and graham crackers tossed together in perfect harmony. A solid choice for any tart lover. 1000 Division St., East Greenwich. 558-0190
