Tartes and quiches are both French contributions to the art of combining light pastries with a great variety of fillings. In fact the tartes more often contain sweet fillings, for instance, la tarte alsacienne filled with fresh cream, la tarte aux pruneaux a puff paste baked with dried stoned plums and apricot jam from the district of Morvan, la tarte aux raisins a speciality of Lorraine filled with white grapes on a layer of apple slices, la tarte au fromage from the Pays de Gex, which is a remarkable combination of a light sweet pastry, with a filling of fresh cream cheese, melted with cream, yolks of egg, vanilla, castor sugar, and whipped whites of egg.
