- Put the water and sugar in a medium pot over medium heat. Stir until sugar dissolves. When the sugar starts to caramelize, add butter and cream carefully—it will splatter. Whisk well and cook for one minute.
- Add remaining ingredients and cook on low heat for about five minutes, or until apples are soft. Transfer to a blender and puree until smooth. Place in a bowl and set aside to cool.
- Preheat oven to 375° F. Unroll sheet of puff pastry and cut into half-inch by three-inch strips. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Transfer the pastry to the sheet. Sprinkle cheese all over the pastry and bake for 15–20 minutes, or until lightly brown. Let cool.
- Serve apple slices, pear slices and pastry with dip.
