I made a rookie mistake and didn't check my pantry and found I was out of nuts! I thought about chocolate chips but decided they would overpower the taste so I grabbed a half bag of skor bits and poured them in the brown sugar, cinnamon mixture. The strusel in the middle turned into a tasty butterscotch swirl. The topping was the best though as it was almost like a brown sugar sauce in spots where the mixture was blobbed. So good! I wouldn't make it any other way now.

I made this for a potluck breakfast without adding the ice cream topping. It came out moist, flavorful and looks beautiful after it is sliced. Everyone at the potluck loved this cake and several wanted the recipe.

This is soooo scrumptious. Took about 10 minutes longer to bake then the suggested time, but worth the wait.

This cake was delicious. A great cake to make that's quick and easy and perfect for an afternoon snack with coffee. I used almonds instead of pecans as I didn't have them. I also used a loaf tin instead of a tube tin so I had to bake a little bit longer for the middle to cook. The cinnamon sugar coating used to greased the tin caramelised slightly which gave it a great texture. Didn't use the caramel topping..I think it's sweet enough.

I had lots of fresh pears so I doubled the recipe and put it in 4 loaf pans. Great texture, moist. But even though I like ginger, it was too overpowering. I would half the spices and sugar in the crumble mixture. The pear cake itself even without that mixture would have been better I think.

This cake was very moist. I didn't have enough sourcream so I used half sourcream and half vanilla yogurt. Next time I won't use all the brown sugar/cin/ginger mixture in between layers. It overpowered the light pear taste.

cake was pretty good. i fried some pears in butter and some honey and also made my own caramel sauce to top it. i think that without the fried pears i would have only rated three stars. also, i ended up with a lot of batter and the cake was over-flowing. i didnt mind, but just be weary. of course, if you bake a lot, you would know not to put as much batter in the pan as i did.

This was a good cake. Had a little prep work, but overall not that difficult. Husband is a cake person and LOVED it. Not being a cake person, I thought it was okay. A little heavy on the cinnamon/spices for my taste, and I even used an extra pear. Didn't really care for the caramel topping with it. I think whipped cream would go better. It comes out very heavy!

Made exactly as recipe stated, it's a good cake. Nobody raved about it, so for the amount of work required, I probably won't make it again.

Not a 1,2,3 Cake! I will make this for company (The day before!) Also, I thought I had ALL the necessary ingredience...Wrong! I wasn't aware that, What the pear tree gave us, was eaten and the rest shared with neighbors. So, I used strained canned peaches, as a substitute. The remainer of the sour cream, in the frig. went bad....so I used plain yogurt, instead. Since I had all the other ingredients, including the Carmel topping, it was great! Maybe, I should re-name this..."The Substitue Bundt." PS: It also needs More than 2 TBS.Cinnamon sugar for coating...
