Pear Varieties
We've stocked your H-E-B Produce Department with juicy and sweet pears. To pick the perfect pear; gently push near the stem, if it yields slightly it's ready to enjoy!
Bartlett Pear
Wonderfully juicy and buttery with all the classic pear flavor. Ideal for canning.
Bosc Pear
Bosc pears have a crunchy, yet tender flesh with a sweet and spiced flavor.
Comice Pear
Succulently sweet and juicy with a silky finish. Enjoy with soft cheeses like Brie or Camembert.
Concorde Pear
This sweet, vanilla-like flavored pear is perfect for cooking as it holds its shape. It’s slow to brown after cutting.
Forelle Pear
Its cinnamon spice flavor and candy-like sweetness goes well with aged cheeses and tart foods.
Seckel Pear
It may be petite, but it’s big on sweetness and just the right size for a lunch treat.
Taylor Gold Pear
Related to the Comice pear, this large New Zealand pear is almost round and has a golden-brown skin. Its sweet juicy flesh is so smooth that it almost melts in your mouth. This is a good pear for making jams, jellies and sauces.
