Maman Blanc's Apple Tart

We enjoyed watching the series that Raymond Blanc did recently, and particularly enjoyed the bread and the apples episodes (Mr Cupcake likes baking bread nearly as much as I like making cakes...).  However, following the whoopie pies earlier in the week I had some left over double cream, as well as having eggs in the fridge and a few apples in the fruit bowl... it occurred to me that with these and few other storecupboard essentials I could make the lovely Manam Blanc's Apple Tart.  It was very simple as I followed the instructions from the BBC website - although we had no calvados and so substituted this with the good old Captain Morgan that usually lives just for Christmas cake and Christmas pudding!
