Remove saucepan from heat; stir in almond extract or almond liqueur. Cover and refrigerate till mixture mounds slightly when dropped from spoon, about 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, cut each grape lengthwise in half. Peel and thinly slice kiwi. Set grapes and kiwi aside. In small bowl with mixer at medium speed, beat with mixer at medum heat, beat whipping cream, till stiff peaks form. With rubber spatula or wire whisk, fold whipped cream into almond custard. Evenly spoon custard into cooled Tart shell. Arrange grapes, cut side down and kiwifruit on tart in concentric circles. Carefully remove side from tart pan.
