Jam Tarts...

Who loves a jam tart? I know we do. We buy jam tarts quite regularly as they are a great sweet treat to have, however I do enjoy making my own as I love making pastry plus with your own you get the added bonus of adding what ever jam or curd you like in them and not limited to the 3 or 4 flavours you get from shop brought ones.

It...
