Raspberry Tart With Mascarpone And Jelly

Raspberry Tart With Mascarpone And Jelly

I know June’s favorite are strawberries, but for me now are raspberries. I love them for their sweetness, tenderness, color, smell and the most for what they do for my body.

Except for nearly zero calories, they are full of water, fiber, nutrients- translate this- amazing for weight loss and remaining healthy body, glowing skin, shiny hair, great metabolism booster, healthy and happy guts, light body. Yes, yes and yes, almost miracle workers.

Because I did not baked anything in really long time ( nearly 3 months) I picked this lovely Sunday dessert. It is lighter than most of cakes, cookies, desserts you know.

Easy and quick in preparation. Have a look and decide yourself.
