Wash and peel the pears.
Slice the orange. Place the pears in a pot of water and add the orange slices, cinnamon stick, star anise, and cloves. Boil for 20 minutes, then remove the pears and let them cool slightly.
Cut the puff pastry into long strips. Slice a small piece off the bottom of each cooled pear so they can stand upright.
Starting from the bottom, wrap the puff pastry strips in a spiral around each pear until you reach the stem.
Arrange the wrapped pears on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Mix the egg yolks with the milk and brush the pastry with the egg wash.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 30 to 35 minutes until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
Cook it hands-free.
