Peach Melba Tarts image

Individual ice cream filled peach & berry tarts. Quick to make but they need to freeze for 4-6 hours so plan ahead. Freezer time not included in cook time. A little trivia about peach melba - the famous London chef Escoffier was once so moved by Nellie Melba's performance in Wagner's Lohengrin that he took up his pans and ice cream maker to create a dessert, both simple and elegant, in honour of the Australian soprano.

These tarts were just okay. The crust was a bit dry and the filling was a bit bland. I wouldn't make them again.

These tarts were a bit too tart for my taste, but they were still very good. I would recommend using more ripe peaches next time.

These tarts were okay, but nothing special. The crust was a bit too dry and the filling was a bit too sweet. I think I would have liked them more if the peaches had been a bit riper.
