Cream Tart with Oranges and Toasted Almond Crust

Last Updated on April 14, 2026 by Carrie Korem, FNTP

I’m writing this post from the Grand Velas resort in Carmen Del Playa, Mexico. I know, I’m having a hard time believing it myself. I’m attending Food Blog Camp for 5 days of hands-on workshops with the great David Lebovitz, Matt Armendariz, Jaden Hair, Elise Bauer and Todd and Diane , and Adam Pearson.

The white sand and shimmering emerald waters remind me of home. The workshop reminds me why I love creating recipes and sharing them.

I’m here with several fabulous ladies. We flew in from L.A. together on a red-eye, only made tolerable by having friends with whom to commiserate. We get 5 gorgeous days to spend in the sun and glean from some of the best.

I’ll be back in a few days with a full recap, new recipe, and some exciting news. In the meantime I’ll leave you with this fabulous orange cream tart. A shortbread-like almond crust filled with a subtly sweet orange custard – a perfect way to end just about any meal.

I’m going back to the beach now. . .

    Just got your cookbook last night. What an inspiration it is. I love the way it's organized! I can't wait to play around with making things from it! I'm very envious of your trip, not just the beach, but the Food Blog Camp! That's a goal for me to shoot for. Oh, and oranges and cream? oranges, cream, and almonds? What a FANTASTIC combination. My mouth is watering already.

    Carrie, Congratulations on your new cookbook!! How exciting! I have yet to attend a blogger event, and can't wait until my first one. This tart is something my tastebuds would crave!! I'm bookmarking it for sure. I am just delving into experimenting with "wheat-free" and "gluten-free" having learned they are 2 different things. Thankfully we are not dealing with any allergies that I know of, and we grind our own wheat, but I also know that I don't always feel the best after ingesting large amounts of it. I don't seem to have the symptoms, but feel better when I eat other whole grains or limit grains in general. Can't wait to experiment and find the best option for me.
