Tartes Tatin
I think that Tatin is the name of the hotel that became associated with it, so is a proper noun and should properly be capitalised, so the plural is tartes Tatin.
Sisters

It was two sisters that invanted it. Their surname was Tatin.
Also agree with James
As an ex chef, I agree with James
As someone who eats a lot, I also agree with James.
I am no chef, but think the answer is probably right. But what could never be right is one of the answers offered in PNL's question. Never "tarte tatins" - only "tartes tatins".
All wrong
The correct plural would be 'puds'
If you need a taster to ensure the recipes taste good enough...
wait a goldarn minute - we have missed something vital here
A cookbook aimed at accountants...interesting but what exactly does that mean?
meals that are not taxing...?
Double entry baked Souffles?
Receipts "en papillote"?
Oh - and the sisters were Tatin, so whatever the plural is in French.
Tatin est un nom propre ...
à l'origine donc "des tartes Tatin" (majuscule, pas de s) de préférence.
PS
Who would know, I wouldn't have a clue if it was right or wrong, but I agree YOU need to know:-)
