Mini Pastry Shells
60 Gr -
 20 party cups

We here at ChefShop have a great deal of experience with parties, catering them, throwing them, or mostly just attending them. And we know how much trouble it is to create both savory and sweet bites to please guests.

The challenge with tiny tartlets is the time to make and bake all of those shells, let alone the anxiety of preparing the perfect fillings. Commercially baked and packaged pastry shells usually end up tasting like cardboard and detract from your delicious filling.

We've discovered a product imported from Holland that has passed the taste test here at ChefShop, and that's saying something!

These 64 little fluted shells measure about 1 3/4 inches in diameter and about 1/2 inch deep, and taste like they come from your own kitchen.

Made with flour, vegetable oil, shortening, and salt they are crisp and flaky with just the right mouth feel provided by the salt and fat. They are perfect to do double duty as either savory or sweet tartlets - just imagine a little dollop of buttery lemon curd topped by a sliver of strawberry.

They are also versatile enough to use as a base for a whole host of hors d'oeuvres.


These mini pastry shells have minimal ingredients and are shelf stable with no need to be refrigerated. If you need them for the pantry, they will do the job. They do not replace freshly made.

Note that although we try to pack the mini pastry shells very carefully, there will be some (5% to 6%) breakage during shipping.

Fabulous Pastry Shells!
I bought these to serve at a baby shower I was hosting. I filled them with chicken salad and they were delicious! I was so pleasantly surprised that none of the shells were broken during shipping. I would definitely buy these again!

I love these!
I was delighted to find a new source for these mini pasty shells since my favorite grocery store stopped carrying them. I've used them for years for making hors d'oeuvres. I've filled them with cream cheese topped with twist of smoked salmon, a caper and a light sprinkling of coarsely ground black pepper. I've also filled them with a mixture of grated pepper jack cheese, chopped green onion and bacon and baked them until the cheese was slightly melted. The pastry shells are particularly delicious when they're warm and toasty. Out of the 2 packages I received only 1 shell was broken. Thank you ChefShop.com!

Tea time
I have't had a chance to try them yet. They were purchased for an afternoon tea taking place in a few weeks. Others had complained that many of the shells were broken on arrival. I just want to say that they arrived quickly and in perfect shape. Not a single one is broken. I'm looking forward to trying them at my tea.
