  Place cream cheese, sugar, vanilla in a sanitized mixing bowl. Blend with a paddle attachment until smooth. Place cream cheese mixture into pastry bag and pipe 2 oz into each shell. 

Garnish each tart with 2 kiwi rings, 4 strawberry slices, 5 blueberries, 2 raspberries and 2 blackberry.

In large sauce pan, heat apricot preserves over medium heat until melted and internal temperature reaches 140F. Glaze each tart with approximately 1 Tbsp. melted preserves over fruit to prevent discoloration. Portion 1 tart on each dessert dish. Hold cold for service.
