Tart

Tart is a leaving card featuring a fruit tart on a white plate with knife and fork and text ‘Sorry You’re Leaving. I’ll Miss You More Than Strawberries’. What fruit have we on the plate? We see pride of place goes to the strawberry, but surrounding it and of equal importance in the panoply of flavours and shapes we have other fruit. We have a blackberry, raspberries, blueberries, and a tiny redcurrant. And then there is the pastry that looks as though it is begging for someone to bite into it.

Berries in a tart, what a delicious sweet. And to miss someone more than these delights is a sure sign of real friendship.

The word tart, meaning a flat, open-topped pastry comes from Old French word tarte and dates back to the 1300s. It is said that it is possibly a variation on the word torte. That may be, but that is hard to see because of the difference in the shape of the pastry. Whatever the origin, we wrote about the centrepiece – the strawberry – in this article about National Pick Strawberries Day in our series ‘Behind The Cards’.
