Remarks
If you can, make your tart cases with coconut sweetcrust pastry.
Similarly, if you don't have a Victoria pineapple, a normal one will do fine.
In stage 3, you can caramelise the pineapple by cooking it until the juice evaporates completely, then flambé it with rum, if you like.

How to glaze a tart
Professional pastrycooks usually say that "a beautiful cake is already half sold", it is one of the reasons why they do not put a tart on sale without glazing it ("abricoter" in Fench), i.e. coating it with a thick apricot syrup. This glaze gives a glossy finish to the tart (see the photographs below) and also protects it from the air and thus from oxidation and browning. It's a quite simple technique that you can easily apply to give to your desserts a professional look. This is how you do it. February 15th 2016474 K4.4 7 min.
