Tatin Sisters

The Tatin Sisters, Stéphanie and Caroline, were famous French pastry chefs in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. They are best known for inventing the classic French caramelized apple tart known as Tarte Tatin. This dessert involves cooking apples in butter and sugar before baking them under a layer of pastry, then flipping it upside down for serving. Their culinary creation became a renowned regional specialty from the Sologne region in France and has since gained international recognition. Their innovation and skill helped popularize this delicious caramelized fruit tart, making them notable figures in French pastry history.
