Visiting with my son and his partner in San Francisco. They live in Glen Park and only a few steps away from some pretty tasty and paleoish friendly cafes and restaurants. What a selection of cuisines, on my first day we lunched Thai and dinnered French. Not bad considering I had only arrived at 1pm!

So tonight they are cooking us up a meal at home. Not one to relax in the kitchen, I’ve offered to make dessert. Being on vacation means, something simple, easy to make, totally decadent looking and tasting and preferably chocolate.

And look at what I have found, isn’t perfect? All credit and thanks to Gimme Some Oven.

The lovely people at Wordpress started my New Years day off with the 2014 WordPress Annual Report for Paleo with Cream. It was very cool to have Paleo with Cream reviewed and I am happy to say the report card came up trumps! So indulge me as I reflect on 2014 before we say “that’s a wrap” and head on into 2015.

Paleo with Cream was created as a place my family and I could easily find my growing collection of healthy, Primally Inspired, paleo-ish, Low Carb, High Healthy Fat, whole food, clean eating recipes. Some of these are my own, some I have tweaked and many are my favourites from other blogs.

Then something happened; Fabulous Followers, Perfect Poppers In and Casual Passers By. All of you deserve a virtual hug and a big thanks for taking the time to visit, to comment, to share and to cook-up what you have found here. Your visits inspired me to create more yummy recipes, tasty treats and to post them here.

So then, let’s do a recipe round up for 2014 and check out the first 2015 recipe!

One of my favourite summer tarts of all times is Strawberry Custard tart. I used to enjoy these in the old days; short sweet pastry, sweet custard and sweet strawberries – ahh, there seems to be a similar theme happening here!

Now that I don’t eat or cook with grains or refined sugar I have been thinking about how to repurpose these not so nice ingredients to make a healthy treat for the holiday season.

Well, with a few tweaks to a paleo pastry recipe and some friendly changes to the basic Creme Patisserie recipe my tart desire has been satisfied.

As well, I have a whole family of converts to this tasty dessert as the first tart disappeared in a twink. The second tart made for Christmas day only lasted a bit longer because my son had created his take on the Mixed Berry Cheesecake, so we had two desserts!

I hope you will give this a try and you don’t need to wait for summer. If fresh berries are out of season then use frozen berries.
