About Candied oranges

Candied oranges are a delightful confection made from orange slices simmered in a sugar syrup until they become tender and glossy. Originating from European and Mediterranean cuisines, particularly in France and Italy, they’re often used as a decorative garnish or enjoyed as a sweet treat. Typically, candied oranges consist of orange segments, sugar, and occasionally water or honey, which are slowly cooked to preserve the fruit’s natural citrus flavor while adding sweetness. While oranges are rich in vitamin C, antioxidants, and fiber, the candied variety’s nutritional benefits are overshadowed by the high sugar content used in the candying process. Consumed in moderation, candied oranges can add festive flavor or elegance to desserts, but their sugar concentration makes them best suited for occasional indulgence rather than regular consumption as a healthy snack.
