Soft tart with cream and summer fruit is the delicious and special dessert. Recently, after a good 8 months, I finally saw my sister and her little ones again, and what better occasion to make a dessert! So, even with very little notice, I prepared a delicious Tart with cream, peaches, and grapes. A very soft base prepared with a smart mold, a filling of delicious custard and finally slices of nectarines and grapes. The smart mold is a particular mold with a small step, after cooking, by turning it upside down, it creates a perfect recess to fill as you like. I had already made this cake for my mom’s birthday but in a version only with peaches. This time I wanted to add grapes too, but other summer fruits like figs, plums, or prunes are also fine. A fresh cake and special like Lemon Tart, Peach Cheesecake or Yogurt Cheesecake. So let’s run into the kitchen and together make a delicious Tart with cream and peaches

How to prepare the Soft Tart with cream and fruit
Beat the 2 whole eggs with the sugar for about 5 minutes, until you have a light and fluffy mixture. Add the vegetable oil and milk. Mix. Gradually add the sifted flour with the baking powder and mix well.
Oil and flour, shaking off the excess flour, a smart mold of 11 inches in diameter. Pour the mixture inside, distributing it well over the entire surface. Bake the cake for 20 minutes in the oven at 356°F in static mode. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely before turning it upside down on a serving plate.
Heat the milk with the lemon peel in a saucepan. Beat the 2 egg yolks with the sugar until you have a light and dense mixture. Add the potato starch to the eggs and mix.
Pour the entire mixture into the saucepan with the hot milk. Stir with a whisk and cook over medium heat, continuing to turn. It takes just 1-2 minutes. Turn off the heat, transfer the cream to a bowl, removing the lemon peel, and let it cool.
Wash the peaches and grapes. Cut the peaches into thin slices and halve the grapes, removing the seeds. Mix a shot glass of limoncello with 2 shot glasses of water. Soak the soft base of the cake with this mixture.
Fill the recess of the base with the cream. Arrange the peach slices and grapes on top, decorating it as you like. Brush the entire cake with peach jam.
