Butter tarts are the best. Period. Don’t try and argue, for it is fact.
A quintessential Canadian dessert, nothing compares to a
warm, gooey, homemade goodness that is the butter tart. A simple combination of
butter, sugar, syrup, eggs and raisins in a flakey pastry, many companies have
attempted to create pre-packaged varieties and failed. There is something about
tarts fresh out of the oven that just can’t be beat.
If you love these ooey gooey treats be sure to head to
Midland, Ontario on June 10; the sweetest day of the year. The township is
hosting its annual Ontario’s Best Butter Tart Festival where professional and amateur
bakers compete for their recipe to be known as the best in the province! The
day also offers up live music and a vendor market where over 150,000 butter
tarts are sold! You can also find homemade crafts, art, things for the house
and of course butter tart inspired treats. Make room in your belly for more
butter tarts by competing in the annual Butter Tart Trot, a 1km kid’s fun run
and 5km, 10km or half marathon options for the adults. The day promises to be fun for the whole family,
