In many Israeli homes, citrus is treated with care long after the fruit itself is eaten. Orange peels are simmered, dried, and saved to infuse the home with the refreshing and nostalgic scent of these bright winter fruits. Thin lengths of orange peel are candied slowly, then coated in chocolate to create a sweet that feels familiar to anyone who grew up around homemade citrus preserves or groves.
The orange peels are cooked until tender, absorbing sugar while keeping their natural bitterness intact. Once set, they are dipped in chocolate to form a thin shell. The first taste is bright and citrusy, followed by the deeper flavor of cocoa, with the peel holding everything together. Each strip is slightly irregular, reflecting the handmade process and the natural shape of the fruit itself. These are often eaten one at a time, with coffee or tea, or kept on hand as a small treat.
Inside the box, the strips are gathered loosely, allowing their shape and texture to remain intact. The packaging protects them from heat and movement, the same way candied peels are traditionally stored in Israeli kitchens, ready to be shared among friends and loved ones.
