Candied orange peels are a popular ingredient for professional cooks and bakers. These peels are made from fresh oranges, picked when ripe and candied with sugar and dextrose. Dextrose is a simple sugar that occurs naturally in certain foods such as fruits and vegetables. It is also used as a sweetener in many food products.

Dextrose is used to make candied orange peels because it has a higher sweetening power than sucrose (table sugar). It therefore produces sweeter peels with a smaller amount of sugar. This makes the peels lighter in calories and healthier, while retaining their characteristic sweetness.

Candied orange peels with sugar and dextrose are ideal for use in cakes, pastries, macaroons and chocolates. They add a touch of sweet and tangy flavour to your culinary creations. Candied peels are also an ideal ingredient for chocolate makers, they can be used to decorate chocolates, garnish truffles and add a touch of sweet and tangy flavour to chocolate ganaches.
