<\/a><\/p>\n When I turned the page in Bon App\u00c3\u00a9tit<\/em> to this recipe on a recent flight down to San Diego, I may have gasped out loud. In fact I must have, because suddenly the guy next to me was looking over curiously. \u201cWhat could be more captivating than the holiday issue of SkyMall?!\u201d, he must\u2019ve been wondering. Let me tell you.<\/p>\n Not only was this an absolutely gorgeous photo of what I later confirmed to be an equally delicious cake, but seeing it made me realize something: I had never had any kind of upside down cake. Not pineapple, not peach, nothing. How did this happen? As a lover of all things cakey and fruity, I knew I had to remedy this as soon as possible.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n And remedy I did! I hope the rest of the upside-down cakes can live up to this one because it\u2019s just heavenly. The combination of pears, caramel, and a moist, fluffy, just-slightly-sweet cake is perfect. It\u2019s also a nice contrast to the heavier desserts of the holiday season. Josh got approximately 2 pieces of this cake before I had devoured the rest. It\u2019s first come, first served in this household, and I made sure not to stray too far from this dessert.<\/p>\n <\/p>\nPear Upside–<\/span>Down Cake<\/span><\/h2>\n
