Candied Citrus Peel Mix Lemon Orange

Candied citrus peel is a confectionery ingredient made by simmering lemon and orange peel in sugar syrup, resulting in a sweet, aromatic flavour with a pleasant citrus freshness. It is used as an ingredient in Christmas biscuits, panettone, stollen, fruit cakes and gingerbread. It can be added to chocolate, nougat or used as decoration on cakes and slices. The peel retains its intense citrus aroma even after candying, which enriches the flavour of baked goods. Available in diced or strip form, it should be stored in a cool, dry place. An essential ingredient for traditional Christmas baking.
