Mymouné’s Sugared Bitter Orange Peel is fabulous preserved candied fruit. If you can stop yourself from munching a whole packet of Mymouné’s Sugared Bitter Orange Peel all in one go, try dipping them in melted dark chocolate. Once cool, serve them with strong coffee – the bitter-sweetness will complement the coffee perfectly. Try chopping the peel and adding it to a carrot cake in place of orange zest. These strips of sugared peel are also fantastic as cake decorations, either cut into small pieces or left whole.
