These amazing little apples look perfectly average from the outside but once you cut into one, you see the magic of their pink flesh. Pink pearl apples were introduced to me by my coworker Melissa. She said she saw them and instantly knew I needed to photograph them, and she was right! Not only are they beautiful but they taste amazing. And being available for only a month out of the whole year, it makes them truly special.
Such a special apple needed barely anything to accompany it, so this is a very simple tart recipe. A bit of honey, a dash of sugar and a classic crust. Get some good vanilla bean ice cream, or make your own! and you will be set.
While at work today filing the case with cupcakes, I look out the window and who do I see parking in front of the shop? One of my photo teachers from college! I stared for a minute, then realized it was her and yelled, 'Nigel!! HELLO!!' It was such a nice surprise. Where I went to school is almost two hours away from the shop so I never run into anyone I know. I miss photo classes so much, especially hers. She encouraged critique, discussion and made people say what they thought of the photo. Not just a 'I like it' 'How nice' response that most people give.
A nice little surprise in the work day, off to go edit photos of my new baby cousin! She's a little wiggle worm so many photos to go through.

The placement of the food is great! I love the light :)
this is gorgeous... love the your tart mold... Those apples are so tiny and cute, I really like their color (yes, like pink little pearls) and the way you have sliced them. Great photos (especially the last one)and styling as well. Now, I'd love to have a slice of this beautiful tart!
I loved hearing about these beautiful apples, and your dish and photography does them justice. They almost look like rose petals in the tart!
I have never seen Pink Apples! Are they sour? Sweet? do they taste tart?
What beautiful apples! Love the tart you made with them too.
What delectable apples to make such a enticing tart. Thank you for celebrating the arrival of autumn with us.

the apples themselves are a real eye-catcher and your photography does them justice. the tarte sounds delish!
greetings from germany!
Truly gorgeous! Love those pink apples.
Apples definitely give that whimsical and rustic feel when they're tiny and cut so the seed pockets are still visible. The pink is a nice tinge of color.
Cheers,
