In pastry tarts, it's usually a creme patissiere (a thick, rich almost 'set' custard) rather than a creme anglais (which is custard, and would be runny and would make the pastry soggy). Then they're normally topped with fresh fruit and glazed with melted jam or redcurrant jelly, or some kind of quick gel.

So, you can put fruit and creme patissiere, or you could put some caramel or dulce de leche in it, and bananas and whipped cream and you've got a quick banoffee tart (you can buy dulce de leche, or you can make it, or Nestle now sell a ready made one in a tin). Or you could put a chocolate cream or mousse and some whipped cream on top, or just some sweetened, vanilla flavoured whipped cream and some strawberries and raspberries, and dribble some melted chocolate over that ...

Thanks, hubby loves banoffee tarts.
