- 4 Williams pears or Conference peels peeled
- 2 L of water
- 260 g caster sugar
- 130 g dark chocolate pastry
- 25 cl (250 g) whole liquid cream
- 1 vanilla bean split in two and scraped off
- a little lemon juice.

1. Poached pears: In a saucepan, heat the water with the powdered sugar, the split vanilla bean with its seeds, and a little lemon juice. Bring to the boil.
