Trivial question, but I know there are very similar tarts made in England (possibly elsewhere, I think Canada has a version too) that is pretty similar to this Scottish tart but cannot find the name of them, unless they are simply called butter tarts.  I seem to remember them having a specific name in England.

Other related question, what sort of individual tart cases are used, I mean the ones that are almost the shape of a tin of tuna (rather than being made in a muffin type tin), cannot seem to find them without knowing the name.

Thanks

Canadian currant tart? 

We used to know it as Canadian tart… but when I add currant in there, Google gives me more familiar photos.

sorry I don’t know the name of the baking tin, but perhaps go through Lakeland baking tins and see if there is anything similar just so you can find the name?

Try Googling ‘small straight sided tart tin’ ?? This is what I got 😉😃

There are a number of individual pie and quiche tins on amazon which should be suitable, I have never come across this tart before and had to look the recipe up. It sounds nice but I imagine it is quite rich.

Thanks, individual quiche tins is the way to go I think, especially as those have a removable base.  Thanks.

Sounds like an old fashioned insult!
