Your recipe is awesome, thank you! I'm having guests over this week-end and I'm definitely serving your pear sorbet. I'm using these candied fruit in your recipe: http://www.histoiresucree.com/product_categories/candied_fruits_baking.html They are great for baking, the candied angelica is especially divine!
