I love pears (particularly Bosc pears), I love ginger, I love cake. WIN! I made this the day before it was to be served (time constraints) and refrigerated it until serving. Either the center wasn’t completely done (despite a tester coming out clean) or the same thing happened as noted in the previous comment. However, I had no issues with a slightly gooey center. One of our friends owns her own bakery and she said she was hesitant to even try the cake because she doesn’t like pears, but she loved it! Fantastic flavor combination. Thanks so much for sharing!

The reason this did not get a five star, is that it doesn’t “hold” well. Made it late morning, and by
7:00 p.m .that evening, the caramel had soaked into the cake, and turned into a pudding consistency. It was still very well received,but am wondering if there is a solution to my problem. Might tweak next time I make this, and there will be a next time.
