Our vegan white chocolate tarts will satisfy your vegan and non-vegan guests. The tangy raspberries work particularly well in combination with the sweet vegan white chocolate, but you can also use other fruits: blackberries, strawberries, and blueberries would also be delicious.
Both the vegan pastry and the white chocolate filling can be prepared beforehand and refrigerated to save time. Then you can add the berries just before serving and dust with icing sugar.
If you can’t get your hands on white chocolate don’t worry because this sweet vegan tart recipe works just as well with dark chocolate.

Method
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas Mark 4.
- To make the pastry, make up the egg replacer in a small bowl according to the packet instructions and beat it with a fork for a minute until bubbly. Put the flour, icing sugar, xanthan gum and salt into a large mixing bowl and mix together with a wooden spoon. Rub in the margarine with your fingertips. Stir in the egg replacer and use your hands to bring the mixture together in a soft ball.
- Transfer the pastry to a lightly floured work surface and cut it into six equal pieces. Roll each piece out to line six shallow 10-cm/4-inch round, loose-based individual tartlet tins.
- Bake the tartlet cases in the preheated oven for 7–10 minutes, or until just firm but not browning, then set aside to cool.
- To make the filling, put the margarine and sugar into a small saucepan and heat gently, stirring, until the margarine has melted and the sugar has dissolved. Put the cornflour into a small bowl and mix to a smooth paste with a little of the soya milk. Add the chocolate to the saucepan with the remaining soya milk. Heat gently, stirring, until the chocolate has melted. Take the saucepan off the heat, add the cornflour paste and vanilla and beat with a whisk for 1 minute, or until the mixture is thick and smooth. Spoon the filling into the pastry cases and leave to cool, then transfer to a refrigerator and chill for 30 minutes.
- Just before serving, cut the raspberries in half and arrange them on top of the tartlets. Dust with a little icing sugar, if desired.
