The Bakewell Tart is an English confection consisting of a shortcrust pastry with a layer of jam and a sponge using ground almonds. The Bakewell Tart is distinct from the Bakewell Pudding which is a dessert made using flaky pastry with a layer of jam covered by an egg and almond filling. Some versions of the tart are covered with a layer of fondant.
