Candied Orange

  • Clean the oranges. Simmer the oranges in water for about 10 minutes. Drain and repeat twice.
  • Slice ½ cm round slices of the oranges. Place them in a large pan. Cover with water and add sugar (1).

Dipping Chocolate

  • Once your oranges are dried, dip them each halfway into the chocolate. Allow any excess chocolate to dip off, and lightly scrape the edge on the side of the bowl.
