    Pies and tart are as you no doubt know are both baked dishes that consist of a crust and a filling. A pie can have a bottom crust, top crust or best of all, both . Tarts have only have one crust as their filling is not covered. So, back to your question, the main difference between a pie and tart is that tarts have open fillings whereas pies can have covered fillings or uncovered fillings.

    Oh, such a lovely pie, made all the better as it appears to be winking at me ;)

    I know my dear. No need, I still have the album you sent me just before Christmas ;):D

    So a pie can be a tart but a tart cannot be a pie?

    Oh no. I bought my son a Costa coffe card to use when he is at uni. He will only be buying one coffee at a time and it was worth £20 !

    Hang on don't panic lol. Did you buy him an actual giftcard one that came in the post or an online e one like I did. If you bought the actual one that will be fine it's just the e voucher one.

    I ve never experienced anything like it tbh and I won't get caught again.

    I hope we're on the same train VT......I'm starting to get excited. I was looking at a mini hamper with flutes and champagne for the journey but we are only on 6 minutes.:o

    It'll take me that long to tell you about the weather on the way there:o:o:rotfl:

    Well...no. A pie can be a tart, and a tart can be a pie, but a tart can not be a covered pie. And then we have a cottage pie :eek: and that could really turn your head inside out.
    But, if anyone is thinking of entering their pie into a competition, just be aware organisers of the British Pie Awards will only accept pies with ‘a filling totally and wholly encased in pastry’ for the annual awards.
