I chose this cake for its aromas, almond and blueberries, a wonderful combination, the Blueberry Tart with Frangipane Cream is wonderful.
I was looking for a tart a bit different from the usual, with different flavors, and the frangipane cream, based on almonds, seemed like a good alternative, and then I wanted to experiment by combining it with the tart and blueberries, and here was the opportunity.
Naturally, the blueberries are fresh, which I had at home, and I must say that the experiment was very successful, I couldn’t have hoped for better, you must try it, it is really delicious. Perfect for breakfast or a snack, delicious and fragrant, it will please both adults and children
