DESCRIPTION
Citrus peels have a bitter flavor that pairs well with sweet flavors, especially sugar. The texture is soft and chewy, enjoyed as a candy unto themselves, especially for those who crave bitter sweets. But candied, aka glacé, peels are also enjoyed mixed in fruit salads, in and atop baked goods, most famously fruit cake. But don’t stop there. Candies peels give zing to cocktails and give punch to fruit and nut mixes. BEST OF ALL: Candied peels are part of the traditional BRIDE’S cake…the best wedding cake of all! Comes with the history on the label and period illustration, for a true taste of the times!

The Sugary Secret Behind Candied Citrus Peels
Throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries orange, and, for that matter, lemons were confections in their own right, particularly the peel. Martha Washington’s cookbook contains a recipe for sugared peels that were boiled repeatedly until the bitterness was more or less knocked out of them and a sugary coating had formed. As a candy, peels are typically crystalized or candied into what is commonly called a “glace.” For more on the wonders of glacé fruits read on.
