Pear Perfection
Sweet, juicy and delicious, the perfect pear is a welcome addition to many recipes. Here are some of our favourites:
Almond Cream Frangipan - Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge
When it’s grey and cold outside and snow has covered the mountain peaks, being cozy indoors with something baking in the oven is the perfect way to spend your day.
Cajeta and Ginger Poach Pear - Fairmont Mayakoba
A delicious and sweet pear dessert.
Champagne Poached Pear Salad With Beddis Blue Cheese and Pecans - Fairmont Empress
The sweetness of the pears is nicely counterbalanced by the bleu cheese. The crunch from the shaved veggies and toasted pecans is incredibly satisfying.

These tarts are perfect on their own, with coffee or sublime when served with ice cream or whipped cream.

Referring to the WW1-era motorcycle, this European creation is kicked up with spice & citrus.
