This tart was a disappointment. The caramel was too runny and the crust was soggy.

I'm not a big fan of caramel, but I thought this tart was still pretty good. The nuts added a nice flavor and the crust was very good.

This tart was easy to make and turned out beautifully. The caramel was smooth and creamy, and the nuts added a nice touch of texture. I will definitely be making this again.

I made this tart for my family and they all raved about it. The caramel was rich and flavorful, and the nuts added a nice crunch. The tart crust was also very good.
