🥄 Texture
The tart has a flaky, buttery puff pastry base that provides a crisp snap and light layers. A soft, airy whipped cream topping contrasts with the juicy, tender fruit slices while chopped walnuts add occasional crunchy bites.
👃 Aroma
A warm, toasty butter aroma from the baked puff pastry is joined by sweet, creamy notes from the whipped cream and powdered sugar. Bright, fresh fruit scents (strawberry, kiwi, peach) mingle with a subtle nutty fragrance from the walnuts.
🍷 Pairs Well With
Chilled lightly sweet sparkling wine (e.g., Moscato d'Asti) or a dry Champagne; nonalcoholic options include iced herbal tea or a mildly sweet cold-brew coffee.
🥗 Side Dishes
Serve with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream or lemon sorbet, a simple citrus-arugula salad for contrast, or a light cheese plate with mild cheeses and extra fresh fruit.

Instructions
- 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the puff pastry sheet on a baking tray and bake for 12-15 minutes until golden and puffed. Remove and let cool for 5 minutes.

While the pastry cools, pour the heavy cream into a bowl and add 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar. Whisk by hand for 2-3 minutes until the cream becomes thick and fluffy (like soft whipped cream).
- 3
Spread the whipped cream evenly over the cooled pastry, leaving a small border around the edges.
- 4
Arrange your sliced fruits on top of the cream in a colorful pattern. Sprinkle the chopped walnuts over the fruit and dust lightly with the remaining powdered sugar.
