This may be Britain’s greatest culinary contribution to the dessert table—a traditional tart with flavors of almond and raspberry that are beyond belief. The traditional Bakewell tart recipe includes an almond-frangipane filling with a thin layer of raspberry jam underneath. Our Bakewell tart encompasses the classic flavor combination of almonds and raspberries into a Raspberry Almond Bakewell Tart that we think is as good, if not better than the British classic tart.
Bakewell tart is steeped in a rich history dating back to the early 1900s. The Bakewell tart recipe has changed little from its origins, featuring a buttery shortbread crust, a moist almond-frangipane filling, and a layer of jam or preserves tucked underneath. It's all topped with slivered almonds for an elegant, rich, and addictive dessert.
Our version of the Bakewell tart is a stellar representation of the original, and one of our favorite desserts. Using raspberry preserves instead of cherry jam gives the tart an elegant flavor profile, and it's a subtle change that makes all the difference.

Raspberry Almond Bakewell Tart
It was very good. Almost tasted like a real Danish Mazarin. Not quit enough marzipan and they usually have a thin layer of glacé instead of almonds on top. I would say it's 90% the real thing. I understand the cost of making and how people don't want to spend the money on a pastry.
