Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Thaw 1 sheet of frozen puff pastry and cut into 12 squares. I like to use my pizza cutter but a sharp knife works too.
- Place the squares on the prepared baking sheet. Pierce the center of each pastry with a fork. Brush the pastry with water and sprinkle with sugar.
- Bake the squares in the preheated oven for 14-16 minutes or until they puff up and are golden brown. Do not underbake as you want them to be nicely browned. Remove from the oven, transfer the squares to a rack to cool completely. Set aside and store at room temperature until you're ready to assemble and serve the tarts.
- In a small bowl combine the berries and fruit; drizzle with a bit of honey to sweeten. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- In a small bowl combine the cream cheese and confectioners' sugar with a stand or electric mixer. Add the cream and continue to beat until incorporated and the mixture begins to thicken. Increase the speed to high and beat until soft peaks form. Gently fold in the lemon curd and refrigerate until ready to assemble.
- Place a dollop of lemon cream on top of each pastry square. Spoon the fresh berries on top and dust with additional powdered sugar if desired. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Whisk the juice, sugar eggs and yolks together in a saucepan, being careful not to aerate it too much. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly but gently with the whisk. Cook until it thickens and the whisk leaves light lines; it will still be quite liquid. Do not let it boil. Strain it into a bowl and press plastic wrap onto the hot surface.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Invert a 10-inch cake pan over the dough (towards the edge of the tray so you waste a minimum amount of dough) and press. Lift off and use a pizza cutter to cut around the imprint of the circle. Lift the circle of dough out and place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Dock it. Center the round metal bottom of 9-inch tart mold over the dough and press. Cut around at 1-inch intervals to form a decorative "fringe". Weigh the metal bottom down with heavy objects. (I place an 8-inch cake pan on top and fill it with stacked tartlet molds - about 3 1/2 pounds worth.)
- Bake about 18 minutes, until the edges are golden, then remove the weights and metal tart bottom. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F. and bake for another 5 to 7 minutes, until the center is golden. Remove from oven and spread the lemon curd evenly in the center. Put back in the oven for 2 to 3 minutes to set the filling. Remove from oven and scatter the berries around the outside edge of the lemon filling. Serve within an hour. Cut with a pizza wheel.
