I used fresh pineapple and orange segments. I cut them too thick because it's not clear in the recipe. I highly recommend cutting the fruit very thin. It will aid in spreading the glaze evenly. This dessert wasn't too sweet and it WAS delicious! We used a pizza cutter and a strong, sturdy spatula to pry the pieces from the pan. The kids were able to pick up their "pizza" and eat it. They thought it was a fun dessert. I'll make it again with berries.
