Apologies for the belated reply! As for the pastry substitution - I believe the pastry in this recipe is basically a short crust so not sure how that would go to solve the problem. I think it's perhaps a bit too much toffee and not enough other stuff to balance it. I think next time I will probably line the base of the tart with bananas and add about half as much toffee. I think more fruit may make it a tad more bearable.
