I'm not going to be here for my good friend Ayumi's birthday so I thought I would make her something. I asked her what she liked and didn't like, and she suggested that I make something "experimental". And.. well I just happen to have the perfect thing! I decided to make her the tart I had been thinking about for a while: the banana, rum, coconut tart with a thin layer of chocolate on the base (I chose white for color consistency) and then a simple pastry cream made with vanilla bean and rum.
She liked it. And so did the others who tried it, which is always a relief as often I'm not sure what I'm thinking when I pair random tastes together, but it seemed to work. All the hard work of preserving worked out!

Hi Rhid,
Nice tart. The combination of all the ingredients matches well and not only your friends love it. Juz looking at your pic makes me drool and the mind can imagine the taste...mouthwatering!
it was delicious indeed, too bad you won't be here on my birthday:(
How creative!! I'm sure this was a huge hit. A perfect bday celebration treat. My favorite part is the little layer of chocolate surprise hidden beneath the pastry cream!!
What a lucky friend to receive such a delightful treat!
