  Delicious, i had it without the cream, but instead freh strawberries. But also I had to make a bit more mixture, because the amount given was not enough.

  I didn't like this recipe at all. Although people at work seemed to find it edible! For me the treacle is very overpowering in this dish. You can taste faintly the lime and coconut. The quantities were fine and didn't spill over at all in a 23cm tart tin and it was easy to make, even doing pastry from scratch as I did. If I was to try again, I would half the treacle and replace with the golden syrup in the dish. I didn't have sweetened coconut though either and just used plain dessicated, the dish seemed plenty sweet enough. Would it have tasted much different, not sure. I doubt anything would have stopped the overpowering treacle taste.

  Use Golden Syrup instead and take out the Rum and you have a gorgeous treacle tart :)
