I'm allergic to pineapple, so I substituted mango. The dessert was still delicious!

This dessert is way too sweet for me. I think I'll try making it with less sugar next time.

This recipe is missing some important details. For example, it doesn't say how long to simmer the fruit.

I followed the recipe exactly and my compote turned out too runny. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This dessert is a bit tart for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think it would be great served with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.
