Each year, this holiday item sells out faster than any other! Abtey, a French chocolaterie, molds dark chocolate into the shape of pears, then fills them with Williams (or Bartlett, as it's known in the US) pear brandy. Eating one of these is like biting into a juicy, ripe pear drenched in boozy, luscious chocolate. These rich sweets are excellent as an after dinner treat, or perfect to fill the stocking of your favorite liqueur lover.
