What Is Sicilian Candied Orange Peel?
Sicilian candied orange peel is made from orange rind that has been slowly preserved in sugar syrup until the peel becomes soft, fragrant, and sweet. The result is a bright citrus ingredient used in traditional Italian desserts and baking. It adds real orange flavor, chewy texture, and color without needing artificial orange extract.

We pack this candied orange peel fresh in a full 1 pound container, making it a better choice for serious baking, holiday recipes, and anyone who uses candied fruit often.
