Historical Insights
Citrus peels have a bitter flavor that pairs well with sweet flavors, especially sugar. A favorite among 1700s sweets, 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. These classic treats are now part of our historical candy collection. But don’t stop there. Candied peels give zing to cocktails and give punch to fruit and nut mixes. They also make a unique historical candy gift! 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!
