The Bakewell tart is a traditional British dessert originating in the town of Bakewell in Derbyshire, England. It consists of a shortcrust pastry shell filled with layers of raspberry jam and frangipane—a sweet almond-flavoured custard—topped with flaked almonds.

This dessert is a variant of the earlier Bakewell pudding.
