These mini tarts were okay, but I wouldn't make them again. They were a bit too greasy for my taste.

I was disappointed with these mini tarts. The phyllo dough was too thick and the filling was bland.

These mini tarts are a bit time-consuming to make, but they are definitely worth the effort. They are so delicious and elegant.

I've made these tarts several times now and they always turn out great. The phyllo dough is so flaky and the filling is delicious.
