Welcome the start of pear season with our Sugar Pears, the first pears of the year to be harvested from the orchard. True to their name, Sugar Pears are exceptionally sweet, crisp, and incredibly juicy, with smooth golden-yellow skin and fine-grained flesh. Freshly picked, they offer a refreshing crunch and delicate honey-like flavor.
For an even sweeter eating experience, simply leave your pears on the kitchen counter for a few days to ripen and soften. As they mature, their texture becomes buttery smooth and their natural sugars continue to develop, making them even sweeter and more flavorful.
Preparation Ideas
- Enjoy fresh as a sweet, refreshing snack
- Slice into green salads with walnuts and blue cheese
- Pair with cheddar, gouda, or brie on a charcuterie board
- Add to yogurt, oatmeal, or breakfast parfaits
- Bake into pear crisps, tarts, cakes, or muffins
- Poach with cinnamon and vanilla for an elegant dessert
Whether you enjoy them crisp right off the tree or allow them to ripen to buttery perfection, our Sugar Pears are a delicious way to celebrate the beginning of pear season and enjoy the fresh taste of the orchard.
