Pineapple in orange caramel

4 servings

10 minutes

Pineapple in orange caramel is a true celebration of flavor, combining the exotic sweetness of pineapple with rich citrus caramel. This dessert hails from Pan-Asian cuisine, where the harmonious blend of sweet and tangy is cherished. The caramelization of sugar gives the dish a deep, slightly burnt sweetness, while orange juice adds a refreshing note. Pineapple cubes soaked in this aromatic sauce become incredibly juicy, and a light buttery hint gives them smoothness and richness. The dish pairs wonderfully with a scoop of creamy ice cream that gently balances its flavor, creating a magical combination of warm and cold. This dessert is perfect for concluding an Eastern-style dinner or simply enjoying the vibrant flavors of fruit.
