Soft, naturally sweet and lovely beside a wedge of blue cheese. I chose these pear slices for the cheese board, and for the moment you want something sweet that is still just fruit.

About Blue Henry
Blue Henry is a small, woman-owned company in Capitol Heights, Maryland, founded by Adrienne Walker, a former FDA executive who wanted a bar garnish that looked and tasted like real fruit. The pears are cut thin at ripeness and dried with nothing added: no sugar, no sulfites, no color. The company is named for her rescue beagle, Henry, and supports pet rescues.

Questions
Are they sweetened? No. The sweetness is the pear’s own, concentrated by drying.
On a cheese board? Yes, especially with blue cheese and a spoon of honey; the slice is pretty and holds its shape.
In a drink? A slice on the rim of a glass of prosecco or a Bellini.
Pairs with
Dehydrated lemon slices and lime wheels; acacia honey and the Laguiole cheese set for the board. More for the table and kitchen.
Lello’s Point of View
Why we chose it. Pear is subtler than citrus and that is its charm. A dried slice brings natural sweetness and a beautiful silhouette to cocktails, cheese boards and breakfast without looking like a standard bar garnish.
What it makes better. It bridges the bar and the pantry: one box can finish a Bellini tonight, sit beside blue cheese tomorrow and land on yogurt the next morning.
How we would use it. Pair a slice with Cipriani’s white-peach Bellini, or serve it with blue cheese and a small spoonful of acacia honey.
Who will love it. Hosts who like unexpected details, cheese-board people and anyone who prefers a naturally sweet snack with no added sugar.
Why it earns its place. Approximately 30 slices of nothing but dried pear make this one of those deceptively simple ingredients that keeps finding new jobs once it is in the pantry.
