Somewhat grim lore question:

Would it be possible to make a solacefruit and prisoner's honey tart in such a manner that eating it would transport you to an invariably pleasant dream in which you would then die? Would a bite-sized tart made of solacefruit contain fruit in sufficient quantity, or if it had to be larger, would one be able to finish it before the honey in the tart transported them off to Parabola?
As an explanation of edits, I was so eager to know the answer to this that I made several typos and mistakes in wording.

I think we just don't know enough about Solacefruit to know how much it takes to kill you. I'm not sure if you can die in a dream, but if you can I suspect your body would just die mid-dream, rather than influencing the dream's events at all.

The amount of whole fruit is probably irrelevant if you can make a reduction or syrup from it and retain its properties, anyway, thus making the size of the tart or how much it'd require a bit beside the point. I guess, then, the questions would be "would the tone of the experience from the pleasantness of solacefruit inform the dream enough to ensure it would be pleasant," and "would you be able to experience much of anything of the dream before you died".

Really, it's up to you how Solacefruit works at this point, as there's no established canon on its finer details, other than that it's a nice fruit that kills you in higher amounts.

If you die in the dream, you die for real.

The kind of death is also an important missing detail: are we talking Slow-Boat-dead or Cantigaster-Venom-dead but without the mess?
