A Bakewell tart is an English confection consisting of a shortcrust pastry shell beneath layers of jam, frangipane, and a topping of flaked almonds.

[1] The tart is closely associated with the town of Bakewell in Derbyshire.

[1][2] A Cherry Bakewell, also known as a Bakewell cake, is a version of the tart where the frangipane is covered with a top layer of almond-flavoured fondant and a single half glacé cherry.

[1] In Gloucester, a similar tart was made using ground rice, raspberry jam and almond essence.

[4] Subsequently, Gloucester museums revived the recipe, serving complimentary Gloucester tarts to museum patrons.
