1. Stage

Preheat oven to 350°. Place a greased 9-in. springform pan on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil (about 18-in. square). Wrap foil securely around pan. Place on a baking sheet.

2. Stage

In a large bowl, whisk butter, cream, honey, cinnamon and vanilla. Gently pull phyllo apart and add to bowl; toss to coat. Press onto bottom and up side of prepared pan. Bake until golden brown, 40-45 minutes. Cool on a wire rack. Remove foil.

Meanwhile, in a small heavy saucepan, whisk egg yolks, sugar, mango nectar, lemon juice, cornstarch and lemon zest until blended. Add butter; cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until mixture comes just to a boil and is thick enough to coat a metal spoon.

Remove from heat immediately. Strain mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a small bowl. Stir in mango; cool. Press plastic wrap onto surface of custard. Refrigerate until cold.

Spoon filling into crust. Garnish with mandarin oranges and grapes. Remove rim from pan. Dust with confectioners' sugar.
