classic candied orange peels

A delightful and sustainable way to turn the spiral orange peel shown in your photo into a sweet, chewy confection. These candied peels are perfect as a snack on their own, dipped in dark chocolate, or used as a garnish for cakes and cocktails. The process removes the natural bitterness of the pith, leaving behind the aromatic citrus flavor.
