What is this product
The 43 mm butter shortcrust pastry tartlets are high-pastry, ready-to-use bases. They are the ideal solution for catering professionals who need a consistent product with perfect crunchiness. The 43-millimeter diameter makes them the perfect format for mignon pastry, buffets, and high-end catering, offering an optimal balance between the crunchy shell and the filling.
The producer
These tartlets are produced in Italy by Hermes S.r.l., often distributed under the FB Berton brand. The company specializes in the creation of very high-quality semi-finished products for pastry. The use of selected raw materials guarantees uniform baking, a perfect golden color, and excellent structural resistance.
Kitchen characteristics
The technical peculiarity of this butter shortcrust pastry is its extraordinary resistance to the moisture of creams and fillings. Thanks to a specific manufacturing process that seals the internal porosity, the tartlets do not soften quickly, maintaining their typical crunchiness even hours after preparation. The intense taste and scent of butter enrich every creation.
How to use in the professional kitchen
Being already baked and ready to use, these bases eliminate kneading, resting, and baking times in the laboratory, allowing you to focus entirely on the filling and decoration. They are excellent for accommodating pastry cream and fresh fruit, whipped chocolate ganaches, or diplomat cream. They can also be used for savory amuse-bouches with mature cheese mousses.
Format and storage
The product is supplied in a practical and sturdy cardboard box containing 216 pieces, arranged to prevent accidental breakage during transport and storage. The tartlets keep perfectly at room temperature in a cool and dry place, away from direct light and heat sources. They do not require refrigeration before being filled.
