If pears are canned , drain well.
Cut grapes in half , removing the seeds if necessary.
Mix the cream cheese with the cream or mayonnaise.
Place the pear , cut side down , on a plate.
Cover the pear with the cream cheese mixture.

Place on pear decorated with grapes on each grape leaf , cut side down.
The finished pear should resemble a bunch of grapes.
