Jessie on a Journey
A delectable and visually stunning dessert tart sits on a rustic wooden surface. The tart features a buttery, golden crust filled with a rich, velvety almond frangipane and almond cream. Plump, deep purple plums are artfully arranged atop the tart, their vibrant hues contrasting beautifully with the creamy base. Sprinkled over the tart is a crumbly, nutty ancient grain crumb, adding texture and depth of flavor. Delicate violet petals and sunny marigold blooms decorate the tart, lending a touch of whimsy and natural beauty. The overall presentation is both elegant and rustic, inviting the viewer to indulge in the harmonious blend of flavors and textures.

Ancient Grains Tart from Duchess Bake Shop

How pretty is this Ancient Grains Tart from Duchess Bake Shop in Edmonton? I actually took an Uber 20 minutes just for this bakery because I’d heard the macaroons were so amazing, but this gorgeous treat was just too beautiful not to order. It was tasty, too, filled with almond frangipane and almond cream and gowned in fresh market plums, ancient grain crumb, violets and marigolds. The whimsical pastry matched the whimsical French cafe atmosphere which, paired with the strong coffee, had me hanging out there for hours. What’s your favorite Edmonton sweet shop?
