Mini fruit tarts with buttery pastry, creamy vanilla filling, and fresh berries. This recipe is easy to prepare and ideal for entertaining.

These mini fruit tarts are simple to make and look delightful on any dessert tray. The base is a flaky, buttery pastry—using frozen pastry sheets keeps the process quick and consistent. The filling is a creamy vanilla mixture built from instant vanilla pudding, lightened with a whipped topping for a fluffy texture and brightened with a touch of orange zest for added depth.

Once the shells are baked and cooled, spoon or pipe the vanilla filling into each tart shell, then arrange fresh fruit on top. Berries—such as strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries—are a classic choice in summer, but these tarts also pair beautifully with sliced kiwi, mandarin segments, pineapple, or any seasonal fruit you prefer.
These treats work well for many occasions: brunches, bridal showers, afternoon tea, or any gathering where a pretty, bite-sized dessert is welcome. Their small size makes them easy to serve and they stay appealing when prepared a few hours in advance.
