Make This Bruléed Grapefruit Tart Recipe for Your Next Sunday Brunch

Bruléed Grapefruit Tart Recipe

We love how versatile oranges and lemons are, but if we're honest, we could eat grapefruit every day. To go with your favorite cocktail and your go-to egg breakfast recipe, turn the citrusy fruit into a tart that everyone will want a bite of. It's so tasty that you might make a fan out of the grapefruit skeptics ;) There's a good chance you already have a lot of what you need in your kitchen, so not only is this the prettiest tart you'll make but it's also oh-so-easy, even with the blow torch. Keep reading for the how-to!

Ingredients

  • pie crust
  • 1 cup grapefruit juice
  • 8 ounces cream cheese
  • 14 ounces condensed milk
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons gelatin
  • 1/3 cup instant pudding mix
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • grapefruit slices
  • blow torch

Grapefruit Tart Directions

Mix together grapefruit juice and gelatin above a low flame on the stove. Let the gelatin bloom for about five minutes. While the gelatin mixture is blooming, throw the pie crust in the oven.

Combine the gelatin mixture with condensed milk, cream cheese, instant pudding mix, and 1/4 cup of sugar. Mix on a low setting until all the ingredients reach a smooth consistency.

Pour the custard filling into the pie crust and chill for 3-4 hours.

While the pie filling is setting, brulée the grapefruit slices. To brulée the grapefruit wheels, spread an even layer of sugar on top and use the blow torch to melt the sugar. Torch until slightly golden and allow time for the sugar to harden.

Lastly, cut the grapefruit wheels in half and place them on top of the pie in a spiral motion.

From classics like strawberry shortcake to innovative creations like strawberry s’mores, these 32 strawberry desserts push the boundaries of that fruity, juicy flavor we all know and love. Get ready to indulge!

Strawberry Freakshakes

Think of this recipe as your traditional strawberry milkshake, but leveled-up beyond compare. The "freak" label for these decadent shakes is entirely accurate, as they get loaded with sugar, ice cream, donuts, whipped cream, and of course, rainbow sprinkles. (via Brit + Co)

Strawberry Donuts

These strawberry donuts earn a healthy (or well, healthier) edge by using whole wheat flour, coconut oil, and Greek yogurt. Don't worry though – they're still as sweet as ever, and they'll be super tasty alongside some coffee for a nice morning treat! (via Brit + Co)

Strawberry Tart

This tart looks impressive, but it's not all that hard to execute. Get your hands on just 5 ingredients – store-bought pastry dough and custard help expedite the process – and you'll be well on your way to strawberry, dessert-y goodness. (via Brit + Co)

Strawberry Chia Oatmeal Cookies

Turns out, you can eat cookies for breakfast! These strawberry-filled lil' bites serve as a quick power-up with fruit, oats, and chia seeds. You can even pack a few in your lunchbox for a healthy mid-day snack sesh. (via Brit + Co)

Boozy Chocolate-Covered Strawberries

These skewered strawberry desserts would make a fun Friday night activity to share with your boo! Simply soak some fresh berries in pink champagne overnight, then assemble them onto skewers before dipping them right into a dark chocolate bath and garnishing with more chocolate and crushed pistachios! (via Brit + Co)

Strawberries and lemons are a match made in flavor heaven, and these easy cookies (they only take 20 minutes) deliver a strawberry lemonade-type taste. Summer, here we come! (via The Edgy Veg)

Strawberry Shortcake

Strawberry shortcake is an absolute classic! This recipe makes a few simple swaps (like whole wheat flour instead of regular, and maple syrup instead of white sugar) to make each and every bite a tad bit lighter than your traditional take. (via Whole and Heavenly Oven)

Dark Chocolate Strawberry S'mores

You haven't lived until you've tried putting fresh strawberries on your s'mores. Just look at that gooey goodness! (via Feel Good Foodie)

Strawberry Shortcake Ice Cream Bars

The crunchy coating on these strawberry shortcake-inspired ice cream bars is exactly why you need to make them this summer. It's comprised of brown Rice Krispie pieces and freeze-dried strawberries to add some variety in texture, and wow, is it delicious! (via Half Baked Harvest)

Strawberry Rhubarb Pie

Rhubarb makes an excellent partner to strawberries. Case in point: this no-frills, uber-fresh pie with an impressive lattice crust! (via Completely Delicious)

This sip is like if you combined a strawberry shake and hot chocolate into one. It's so dreamy! (via Two Peas & Their Pod)

Strawberry Cake Mix Brownies

Strawberry cake mix makes these strawberry desserts so much quicker, but they don't skimp on flavor at all. If you want to take things up a notch, try adding some fresh strawberries on top! (via Kathryn's Kitchen)

Strawberry Rice Krispie Treats

These Rice Krispie treats would make our child selves go crazy. You'll only need four ingredients to make 'em: freeze-dried strawberries, cereal, marshmallows, and butter, so they're a good dessert to make if you don't have a lot of ingredients on-hand and don't feel up to baking! (via The Endless Meal)

Chocolate Strawberry Mock-tini

This non-alcoholic, dairy free martini is decadence at its finest. You'll create your very own chocolate coconut simple syrup before concocting a mix of cashew milk, strawberries, and swirls of melted chocolate. (via Chef Bai)

Camila Mendes rocked the Met Gala red carpet with her sequined rosette dress, reminding me that this floral trend is still in full bloom. We've seen rosettes pop up here and there over the last year with the soft girland coquettetrends, but now rosettes are an entire moment of their own. Cami definitely crushed this trend, with the petals flowing down the length of her dress, giving her a delicate draped look. But rosette styles — a rosette dresses in particular — aren't one-size-fits all. Like their literal flower counterparts, a rosette dress can take many forms. From more structural accents to flowing flowers, there's truly something for everyone! Here are 17 ways you can style your own rosette dress moment á la Cami!

Shop The Rosette Dress Trend Here!

Bernadette Henry Chiffon Rosette Mini Dress

These off-the-shoulder sleeves and the dainty length really make this dress something special! Plus, it honestly feels the closest to Cami's actual look, given the draping and rosette placement.

BHLDN Rosette Halter Tulle Shift Mini Dress

The second closest to Cami's look, this rosette dress has all the halter top realness you could ask for! I'm really into this lilac color and the pleating — especially for a sweet happy hour-to-dinner night out with your girlfriends!

By Anthropologie Silky Rosette Tunic Top

Nothing says coquette like a slinky little silk nighty! I love this dress for a summer night out!

Fore Rosette One Shoulder Mini Dress

I think the hip rosette would somehow get in my way if I tried to wear this dress, but it looks SO cute for people more coordinated than I!

Edikted Thalia Rosette Ruffle Strapless Minidress

Powder blue is really having a moment, and I can't get enough of it here! The way the fabric just hangs off the rosette is such a delicate detail.

Nia Rosalie Dress

This rosette dress is perfect for your bachelorette party, TBH! Throw it on before your night out with the girls and dance the night away!

Adalynn Knit Two Piece

Though it's technically not a dress, this two piece is sooooo fun for summer! It's giving Cool Girl Goes To Dinner On Vacation.

Princess Polly Lorello Mini Dress Red

The red trend isn't going anywhere any time soon, and to nobody's surprise — it pairs perfectly with rosettes. This is THE Hot Girl Summer dress for sure.

Elliatt Trompe Dress

Barbie does rosettes! Well, not actually – Elliatt does rosettes here, but I'd like to think Barbie would love it. The floral bunches in three corners of this dress are really sweet here, too!

Atoir Déjú Vu Crop Top and Skirt Set

Another Hot Girl moment with this Atoir set (again, I know it's not exactly a dress)! This strappy little number will have everyone asking for your actual number in no time!

Abercrombie One-Shoulder Rosette Trapeze Mini Dress

The Abercrombie renaissance continues to win big with this rosette dress! I love the two-tiered skirt and the one-shouldered rosette strap.

Mango Ruffle Floral Print Dress

The rosettes on this dress from Mango are printed on, rather than the floral appliques we've seen so much of here. Definitely a unique take on this trend!

BHLDN Annie Rosette Mini Dress

It may be a bridal dress, but that doesn't mean that's all it's good for! While this is totally perfect for all your bridal shower, rehearsal dinner, and even wedding needs, I can definitely see this slaying way after "I do" too!

Hutch Sleeveless Rosette Romper

I'm absolutely obsessed with how much this Hutch romper looks like a straight-up dress. The rosette straps are just the cherry — er, flowers — on top!

Endless Rose Corsage Rosette Minidress

A shift dress is always a classic silhouette to stash in your closet, and this Endless Rose option is far from boring! Adorned with a handful of chunkier rosettes, this mod-esque dress is everything.

Staud Delilah Rosette Satin Minidress

Another slinkier option, the Staud Delilah Rosette Satin Minidress is chic and sexy. Pull it out for your next date night and see how your partner reacts!

Rare London Rosette Detail Asymmetric Cocktail Dress

And for my final trick, I give you this dress: 💃. While I'm only slightly kidding, I love the front hip placement of the gathered rosette and the movement of the high-low slit.

Paleodesserts typically avoid processed ingredients, grains, dairy products, and refined sugars – but that doesn’t mean they have to be bad. Sure, they primarily focus on using whole foods, but there are tons of paleo desserts out there that don’t feel like you’re eating on a diet at all.

Common ingredients in paleo desserts include almond flour, coconut flour, coconut oil, dates, and various fruits like berries or bananas. You can feel really good about eating these 11 paleo desserts. They’re nutrient-dense and perfectly sweet! From snack-sized bites to fully-fledged cakes, we’ve got you covered.

Paleo Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

Cookies are superior when it comes to paleo desserts, or any desserts for that matter. These addictive bites take on the flavors of pumpkin and chocolate, all without leaning on process ingredients! (via Brit + Co)

Cherry-Cranberry Almond Paleo Scones

These paleo scones are just as good as the ones you'd snag from your local coffee shop. Cherries and cranberries dot the sweet dough for a fresh touch, plus there's a delicious cranberry glaze to top it all off! These paleo desserts would work so well for serving a large party crowd – or, you could save the leftovers all for yourself. (via Brit + Co)

Fudgy Paleo Brownies

Though you might assume paleo desserts say 'no' to chocolate, this brownie recipe will instantly prove you wrong. The batter, made primarily from almond flour, coconut flour, and cocoa powder, gets balanced out in terms of moisture with coconut oil, eggs, and maple syrup. Dark chocolate is the key to this dessert's success! (via The Real Food Dietitians)

Paleo Gummy Bears

Our list of paleo desserts wouldn't be complete without the more fruity snacks! These paleo-friendly gummy bears only require three ingredients and a gummy bear mold with a dropper. You can make any flavor you want depending on the type of fruit juice you use – just make sure it's labeled “not from concentrate” and is organic to abide by the paleo guidelines. (via Clean Cuisine)

Berry Paleo Banana Bread with Lemon Glaze

Banana bread is the ultimate treat you can snack on in the morning, afternoon, and at night. This paleo version is doctored up with even more healthy stuff like three types of berries and an addictively tart lemon glaze. Swoon! (via The Endless Meal)

Coconut-Coated No-Bake Energy Bites

For paleo desserts that you *don't* have to actually bake, energy bites are the sweetest solution. These can be crafted within minutes using a short list of ingredients: prunes (healthy fiber FTW!), almonds, chia seeds, and surprisingly, orange juice! Pop one in your mouth for a workday snack, or wait for bedtime to indulge in this daily sweet treat. (via Live Eat Learn)

Raw Chocolate Avocado Pudding

This spoonable paleo dessert is also plant-based, gluten-free, and made with 5 ingredients. The creamy base is made with 2 ripe avocados, which get masked with the flavors of cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and the natural sweetener of your choice. (via Veggie Society)

Paleo Coconut Cream Pie

You may be a bit skeptical at just how good a keto, paleo, vegan, gluten-free, and sugar-free pie could really taste, but we promise this one is ahh-mazing. The coconut flour, coconut milk, coconut whipping cream, and *actual* shredded coconut form the signature flavor without taking over too strongly. You'll wanna eat slice after slice! (via No Eggs or Ham)

Paleo Thin Mints

Wanna enjoy your fave Girl Scout cookies year-round? Look no further than these paleo thin mints that incorporate the minty, chocolatey flavors you love, without any harmful additives. (via Whole and Heavenly Oven)

Paleo + Vegan Caramel Apple Slices

Us any apple variety you love alongside some melted dark chocolate and caramel to create these mouthwatering apple slice pops. You can go crazy with with topping 'em with nuts, seeds, dried fruit, and the like, but it's really up to you on how to best enjoy them. (via Rachel Mansfield)

4-Ingredient Chocolate Chia Pudding

This chocolatey chia pudding is too tasty. With an ample serving of chia seeds, cocoa powder, almond milk, and maple syrup, this is a certifiably healthy paleo dessert. (via Two Spoons)

The Met Gala is known for its amazing red carpet looks, but I pay just as much attention to the beauty. These final makeup looks are just as beautiful as the fashion, and fresh-faced, glowy beauty is EVERYWHERE. Bridgerton star Phoebe Dynevor showed up to the Met Gala wearing a face full of Charlotte Tilbury makeup (done by Sofia Tilbury!), and, TBH, I want to shop every single product. Keep reading for the full scoop!

Recreate Phoebe Dynevor's Charlotte Tilbury Makeup Look

Charlotte Tilbury Mini Charlotte's Magic Cream

Start off your makeup routine by ensuring your skin is glowy on its own! This magic cream features hyaluronic acid (without any of the sulfates you might be worried about) for a hydrating effect you'll love.

No matter whether you have normal or dry skin, this magic cream works to reduce fine lines and give you a lit-from-within glow.

Magic Serum Crystal Elixir

Your skin will absolutely drink up this serum because not only does it feature Vitamin C, but it's also got the super-hydrating Polyglutamic Acid.

The Charlotte Tilbury Crystal Elixir will increase your skin's hydration by 172 percent in 60 minutes, and will make your skin firmer and more elastic!

Charlotte Tilbury Magic Body Cream

Glitter like the diamond of the season yourself with this Magic Body Cream. The vegan formula features hyaluronic acid, Vitamin C, and caffeine.

Beautiful Skin Medium Coverage Liquid Foundation with Hyaluronic Acid

The secret to incredible makeup might just be using products infused with skincare ingredients. This foundation uses the benefits of hyaluronic acid to give you a natural glow.

The medium finish lasts for 16 hours AND it hydrates, smoothes, blurs, and brightens. Talk about a multi functioning product.

Airbrush Flawless Finish Setting Powder

Setting powder should be the perfect final touch — it shouldn't make you look cakey. This Charlotte Tilbury pick is a pressed powder instead of a loose powder, which gives you way more control over how much you use.

Charlotte Tilbury Matte Beauty Blush Wand

Blushes can make or break your makeup, and for Phoebe Dynevor's Met Gala red carpet look, this blush beauty wand was the cherry on top of the look.
It's matte, but this blush still makes you look glowy and natural, rather than painted-up. Plus, it's cruelty-free and vegan!

Pillow Talk Multi-Glow

Get the glow of your dreams with this highlighter that has finely milled pearls, mica, and oil for the smoothest application ever.

Charlotte Tilbury Brow Cheat Refillable Hair-Like Eyebrow Pencil

This micro-precision tool lets you fill in your brows with hair-like strokes that won't make them blocky or unnatural. There are plenty of shades to match a variety of hair colors, and you don't have to worry about ashy undertones.

The long-wearing formula also means your brows won't fade over time. But the best part is that since this Charlotte Tilbury product can be refilled, it's more sustainable!

Charlotte Tilbury Super Nudes Easy Eyeshadow Palette

Nothing says understated glam like a nude eyeshadow look, and there are so many shades in this palette that you can create an endless amount of eye looks! My favorite combo is the brown, champagne, and gold, but the warmer tones are the perfect transition to summertime.

Pillow Talk Push Up Lashes Mascara

The best thing about this Charlotte Tilbury mascara is that it's both lengthening AND volumizing, which work together for your fullest lashes yet.
Even though the lash-lifting polymers are strong, there are no parabens or sulfates.

Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution Hydrating Lipstick

Hydrating lipstick that's also matte sounds too good to be true, but this pick proves it can be done! It's long wearing for all your date nights, GNO's, and movie marathons, and it's vegan, cruelty-free, and paraben-free.

Let us know your favorite spring makeup trend in the comments!

Image via Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for The Met Museum/Vogue

Rebecca Ferguson in Thom Browne

Image via Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images

I knew we'd be getting fairytales, but leave it to Dune 2's Rebecca Ferguson to take the Grimm’s approach — dark fabric, shimmery details, and ominous birds. Revered Mother is mothering!
