The combination of a buttery crust, glistening under subtly sweet rich and creamy pastry cream and topped with neatly arranged sliced colorful seasonal fruits like strawberries, peaches, kiwis, apples, lime and different kinds of berries. Garnished with gold leaf and chocolate swirl; difficult for people to resist and is good for health too!
