In this photograph, what is missing from the lemon tart?

Why, it’s the meringue that’s missing, of course. In the place of meringue there is a dome of firm lemon custard, making this tart a double lemon treat!

Monique taste-tested this confection and gives the following evaluation:

With a dense texture, the custard of this lemon tart has a mouthwateringly acidulous flavor, without bitterness. The shortbread crust retained its crunch even after spending a night in the refrigerator. A real delight to eat!

We stopped by the award-winning bakery and pastry shop of Arnaud Delmontel a few weeks ago and purchased Le Royal, a chocolate pastry in the form of a cube. Covered with dark chocolate syrup it has a hard-shell top and a chocolate mousse filling. When I bit through the dense mousse, I discovered a crunchy shortbread crust, which provided a nice contrast to the soft texture of this confection. The bittersweet chocolate flavor of Le Royal will please most chocolate aficionados.
