We wait all year for the seasonally swanky taste of orange and dark chocolate together. These chocolate-covered orange peels in particular are worth the wait. The peels (which are a no-waste answer to Andres Confiserie Suisse’s fresh-squeezed orange juice in their Tea Room & Café in Kansas City, Missouri) are first softened in salt water, then candied in a low-temperature oven, and finally triple covered in Swiss dark chocolate! We appreciate attention to delicious detail. Orange you glad you held out?

Tip of the Tongue: 

As mentioned, these chocolate-covered orange peels are only sold this time of year. There is no more perfect gift for your holiday host than something rare, beautifully packaged, and absolutely scrumptious. Keep a few boxes on hand this holiday season so that you’re always prepared to say a very sincere, sweet thank-you.
