Two Boxes of The Favorite® Royal Riviera® Pears Fresh Fruit Gift
These extraordinary winter pears are cause for celebration because their sublime flavor, lush juiciness and creamy texture are truly unique. First grown in France in the 1840s, the very finest today are grown by us here in Southern Oregon. We'll select and pack 7 to 12 pears per box, depending on fruit size. Save on two individual boxes when sent to the same address.

Riviera Pears,March 6, 2010
By pear snobfrom Alabama
"The Royal Riviera Pears I recently purchased were absolutely delicious, as always--they took about 3 or 4 days to ripen in their box and then they had to be protected from anyone who happened to "wander" by the refrigerator. I've never had better pears anywhere!"

Makes a great gift,March 3, 2010
By merefrom PA
"I bought these as a 'thinking of you present' for a family member who was having a rough week. It fit my requirement of trying to always give thoughtful, but healthy edible gifts, and it gave her a real pick-me-up. The pears came in perfect condition, and there were plenty to share with her family and friends. Nothing says 'spring is coming' like delicious fruit. I highly recommend these both as a treat for yourself and as a gift for a loved one!"

ROYAL REVIERA PEARS,March 3, 2010
By STORMINNORMINfrom Patterson, NY
"My favorite from Harry and David has always been the Royal Reviera Pears. I tell people about them and build up expectations.
Howver, this last time they did not meet up with my expectations of the sweet, creamy, smooth and delicious pears taht I was used to. They were grainy and the skin was hard and tough. It was a great disappointment!"

Disappointed,March 3, 2010
By KRBBfrom Naples FL
"I have purchased Royal Riviera Pears as "healthy" gifts for friends for years. I have been able to purchase this item locally in Naples, but all of the stores in Florida have been closed. These two boxes were NOT the quality that I purchased in the stores and had bruised spots. I was able to put all the good pears in one box and kept the damaged pears for myself.....and purchased something else for the other friend who didn't get pears."

Not the best,March 2, 2010
By Chipmunkfrom Queens, NY
"Unfortunately these pears were not the best quality. They were bruised and looked weathered.
Usually the pears are excellent quality which is why we order from Harry and David, but this order was very disappointing especially since I had ordered 2 gift packages and the pears were the same in both orders."

Not Normally Disappointing Pears,March 2, 2010
By barlouifrom Central New Jersey
"Usually the Royal Riviera Pears are spectacular, and I look forward to them every year. This must be a bad year for the crop. The boxes came rather beat up, and I thought that was why many of the pears were bruised. I called, and Harry and David, as usual, very graciously lived up to their guarantee and sent 2 new boxes. Despite the fact that those boxes were in better shape, the new pears also were bruised and marked, in some cases worse than the first shipment. I did not call again, figuring it was fair that between the 4 boxes, 2 boxes worth should be okay. I'm letting them ripen, hoping the flavor hasn't been compromised; however, as they ripen the bruises are becoming more and more pronounced.
I know these pears usually are food of the gods, so I will try them again next year and see what happens."

Royal Riviera Pears,February 23, 2010
By Ruth Annefrom South Carolina
"Because of the Harry & David sales offers, I have purchased a number of boxes of pears in the last few weeks, some as gifts and some for our home use. The pears are absolutely delicious, and the only real complaint is that almost every box had at least one spoiled pear in it. Even at sale prices, these pears are expensive. While I realize the transportation of fruit could have devastating effects, these pears were not damaged, they were rotten."

the greatest tasting pears,February 18, 2010
By cinnipugfrom North Dakota
"these pears are the best tasting ever. I received the 1st box as a gift, then I ordered for my son and again for us. When they arrived , had dark spots on them. I let them know and they sent out 2 new boxes. I think they may have gotten frost,(we live in N.D. ) the pears still taste delicious. I will never eat another bartlett. My son and grandson really didn't eat pears much,but they love these. thanks for a great product--and standing behind it."

Make sure you have a towel or napkin near-by...,February 16, 2010
By Mirandyfrom Northeastern, Ohio
"Pears have always been a favorite, ever since I was little. Waiting for the perfect time, just enough softness, but not too mushy! I was introduced a little over a year ago to your pears. After a couple of days resting in the box, they are wonderful!! You actually do have to have a towel or napkin near-by because of the amount of sweet pear juice that runneth over!!! My daughter and I always save the 'golden wrapped pear' for last!! It is like the special jewel in the box!"
