Caramelized Pineapple Barbados

The name of Barbados, the colorful easternmost island of the West Indies, is given to this dessert not so much for the pineapple, which is certainly grown there, as for the rum-flavored sauce. Sugarcane and refined sugar, together with their byproducts — molasses and rum — were the core of the island’s commerce for many years, and Barbados rum has long been considered among the world’s finest dark rums (see “About Jamaican Rum,”).
