No Bake Geometric Mango and Coconut Tart

No eggs, almost no bake, and a wow effect. Tempting or what?

The answer is yes I guess…So no long speech, here is the no bake geometric mango and coconut tart.

You can’t keep your eyes of this baby, can you? That’s what I felt when I saw Kim-Joy ‘s tart on Instagram … So outstanding!!

And it’s no surprise that it was published in The Guardian … just that!! Kim-Joy was in the show “The Great British Bake Off“, a pastry TV show in Great Britain. She makes amazing desserts!! You are going to love it!

So here I am, studying the recipe of this no bake geometric mango and coconut tart, and obviously, you know me, I had to make it!!

I have quite a few things to mention about this recipe.

It’s a no bake tart, well at least no baking in the oven. Of course you will still have to cook your curd in a sauce pan. It’s a good idea when you don’t have an oven on hand (when on holidays, in a student dorm room, when your oven is broken…).

It’s also a no eggs recipe (especially if you choose no eggs graham crackers for the crust). And it can be dairy free if you go for coconut oil instead of butter. It’s delicious too and this way you will have a vegan dessert.

If you don’t like coconut milk that much, you can replace it by half the quantity of milk and half cream.

You get it, this recipe can be adjusted to your tastes, your food choices, your food constraints… Not bad right?

But let’s talk about the taste too … It’s a delight!! The crust is super crunchy as I like it, the curd is super smooth and the fresh fruits (here mango, kiwi, strawberries and dragon fruit) give the acidity touch that make this dessert well balanced. The perfect dessert!!

The utensils:

A mold with removable bottom or a pastry ring placed on a baking sheet,

A sauce pan with thick bottom,

A good whisk,

A bowl

And a sharp knife for the fruits.

You know evrything!

The recipe, Chef!

    Bonjour Emmanuelle,
    Je suis en train de faire votre magnifique tarte géométrique. Mais quand je vois le ” fond de tarte”, je me pose la question du démoulage. Faut-il la laisser dans le moule ? Et au service, cela ne s’écroule pas trop ? Merci en tous les cas pour toutes les bonnes recettes que je découvre depuis quelques semaines et que je prends grand plaisir à réaliser !
    Très cordialement
    Marie

      Bonsoir Marie
      Alors ne vous inquiétez pas ! Le fond de tarte va durcir donc pas d’écroulement normalement … Je le sors toujours du moule avant de mettre la crème et les fruits. Touchez au moment de le faire et vous jugerez. 😉 Et je suis ravie que mes recettes vous plaisent !

    Bonjour,
    Superbe cette tarte ! Le lait de coco mentionné est du lait classique ou de la crème ? Peut-il être remplacé par du lait de vache demi-écrémé ? Merci mille fois pour votre réponse et merci pour toutes ces belles recettes
