Clearbrook Farms Mini Tart Shells - 1.75"

These are like short bread and not overly sweet which is the way we like them. None were broken, as other reviewers experienced, and they seem sturdy enough to stand up to shipping when properly packaged (ours were not packaged well, being in a large padded envelope). And, they tasted fresh. The little indentation in the top will hole about 1 Tbs. of filling without spreading over the sides. Our plan is to use lemon curd in them with a dab of whipped cream. Can't wait!

I like the product, but not the packaging. Each box comes with 24pc. For me to make 48 tarts, I had to order 3 boxes, because the 2 initial boxes had quite a few broken shells due to poor packaging. The 2 boxes were laid flat, side by side, and placed in a 12 x 9 x 3 box. On top of the boxes were two plastic bubble. That's it. No protection at all around the other sides 5 sides of the box. One can only imagine how many times the box was knocked around, dropped from it's origin to it's destination. As a result, I had to order THREE boxes of 12 just so I can make 48 tarts. It would be nice if the shipper would have shipped the tarts in a bigger box and provide enough cushion to protect all sides of the box. This is pastry shells after all...something that will become unusable when broken.UPDATE: 11/21/2013My 3rd box of miniature tart shells arrived. Now I have enough to make 48 tarts.Please refer to my picture of how this third box was packaged. Not happy at all.

These are delicious. Rather like shortbread, a really good shortbread. I made a dairy free pastry cream to fill and put berries on top. They were scarfed up by both people who like sweet as well as people who generally avoid dessert. Everyone loved them and said I could bring that anytime.I filled them about 2-3 hrs before we ate them and they stayed crisp. I'm pretty sure they'd absorb some moisture if I tried to fill them the day before, but I might experiment.They made for an easy, yummy dessert that one could eat in a bite or two.

I am so disappointed. I ordered this item and it arrived with so many of the shells crumbled. The box didn't note that the item is fragile and shouldn't be jostled. Now I paid this money for these shells and a lot of them are completely useless while others are all dusty. I don't know if I can use any of these.I'm supposed to make some dessert for a birthday tomorrow. Now I'm sol!! Waste of money!

These mini tart shells were perfect for my wedding. Will definitely be ordering them again when I have another party, or need to bring a dessert to a party. I filled it with a cheesecake filling and put fruit on top. Was so easy to make and everyone loved them. I ordered extra expecting some to be broken, but there was only one that had a small piece broken off. They were so good I was glad that I had extra, because they all went.

Purchased these a few times. They are very tasty and hold up well for all kinds of fillings. So many others get soft and soggy but these are amazing.

I was very happy with the Shortbread Tart Shells I ordered. I will definitly look for Clearbrook Farms when I need a larger size shell. One question...do you make neutral/savory tart shell that can be used for hors d'oeuvres?Glad I took a picture! The tart was part of a tasting plate. It was filled with lemon curd and topped with diced mango.

Omg these tarts were awesome!!! What a great find. I was baking for my soon to be DIL's shower and 2 trays of tarts I made fell apart. These were a lifesaver and delicious!! Nicely packaged and arrived quickly. I used a cheesecake filling and they were a huge hit!!!
