Notes
This tart is best made with our Mānuka MG100+ Honey, which is a Gold Medal Winner in the London Honeys Awards. Don’t be tempted to use Mānuka Honey of higher grade as it will bring through too strong a taste into this tart.
Another honey that would suit the combination with chocolate in this tart is our Rewarewa Honey, which also won the contest in the USA for the World’s Best Tasting Honey. Like our Mānuka Honey, this honey will complement the deep chocolate flavours of this tart.
If you wish, you can make this tart well ahead of an occasion and keep it in the freezer.
