Tartes

Bakery$

This Old City pastry shop offers personal-size tarts (or tartes, as they prefer) in a wide range of flavors, making it easy to mix and match different desserts to please everyone. For chocolate lovers, grab the chocolate crème brûlée tarte, made with a vanilla bean custard and coated in a chocolate espresso ganache glaze. For those who prefer fruity flavors, try the pear-raspberry almond and blueberry-lemon tarts. Its window is open for walk-up orders, but you are encouraged to order ahead of time to make sure you get what you want, and enough of it.
