Pineapples in orange syrup

6 servings

10 minutes

Pineapple in orange syrup is a refined dessert that combines the sweetness of caramelized sugar, the freshness of pineapples, and the citrus richness of oranges. Its roots can be found in European cuisine, where fruits are often served with rich sauces and alcoholic notes for depth of flavor. Pineapples soaked in thick orange syrup with hints of rum acquire a tender texture and complex aroma. Serving it with cold creamy ice cream makes this dessert a perfect balance between the warmth of caramel and refreshing creamy coolness. This dessert not only delights the taste but also serves as a wonderful option for an elegant finish to a festive dinner or romantic evening.
