Turtle Tarts

So my teacher the other day in labs decided that instead of making a turtle pie that we would try to make turtle tarts. I thought these turtle tarts were adorable. Each one was made out of a chocolate shell, a pecan/caramel filling, layered with chocolate mouse, whip cream and a caramel candy turtle.  While making the mouse, I added to much of the swiss meringue that was originally called for so it offset the color. Unfortunately I threw it away and used a different group's extra mouse that was the right consistency, color, and flavor. I thought the candied turtles were so adorable and added a great tough to the tart itself. I did taste one of these pastries and I thought it had great flavor, but very sweet.
