Tarte’s take on the classic Mont Blanc brings you The Chesnut: ardèche chestnuts, a smooth vanilla cream, and a heart of liquid dark rum. I’ve always like chestnuts and their characteristic earthiness and sandy texture, so this was definitely a huge win in my books. A shortbread like base and super light and yummy vanilla cream made this flawless pour moi except for one detail — the copious amounts of rum encased within. Don’t get me wrong it’s a really really great dessert, but let me put it this way: you’ve really gotta like your alcoholic desserts to enjoy this. If you’re any bit like me and prefer your alcohol and desserts separate, this wouldn’t be for you.
