This is a great intro into making fruit-filled pastries at home. I thought there was a little too much fruit for the amount of pastry involved and it came out a little greasy, but it was very yummy and sweet, and the top turned out crisp.

I made this because of the great reviews, I had some puff pastry I wanted to use up and this just sounded great....and it was so so. The 4 cups of fresh pineapple was way too much, in fact I had enough filling for two strudels (too bad I only had 1 sheet of puff pastry. I thought it was pretty bland, I served it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and spooned the sauce over the ice cream and strudel, it looked just like the picture, the presentation (with the ice-cream and sauce was impressive but the overall taste was disappointing, the pineapple was tart, the pear was delicate and sweet - something was off. An all pear strudel would've been better or maybe apple and pear. This was a waste of a great fresh pineapple!

I am a guy that likes to entertain every once in a while and made this for a good friend who was very impressed. Like previously reviewed it has a much more moderate sweet which makes it so good. I made a modification to the recipe that instead of using traditional puff pastry I used 2 cans of Pillsbury Croissant dough on a large baking sheet. Also I ramped up the amount of ingredients added to the sauce with 3x as much rum and 1/4 cup of brown sugar along with a recommendation to added a little vanilla. The outcome was outstanding and next time I am thinking of adding in a 1/2 cup of raisins. Who would have thought pears and pineapple could work so well together.

I made this for my mom's birthday breakfast an she loved it! it's not too sweet and it's a great way to have fresh fruit, in a different way, for breakfast. I added a little bit of vanilla to the sauce, and brushed with egg white instead. Very easy! A special treat!
