Candied orange peel cubes – bucket 1.5 kg

Artisan-quality candied orange peel cubes for demanding professionals

When it comes to artisanal patisserie, chocolaterie and glacerie, the choice of ingredients is essential to guarantee a tasty, harmonious and aesthetically pleasing end result. With this in mind, we offer you our 6×6 mm candied orange peel cubes, packaged in 1.5 kg buckets, an ideal solution for large-scale use while maintaining consistent quality.

A controlled origin: Valencia oranges (Spain)

To guarantee authentic taste and impeccable texture, we have selected three varieties of orange from the Valencia region of Spain, renowned for its rich terroir and the exceptional quality of its citrus fruit. These oranges are chosen according to the thickness, suppleness and strength of their peel, as these characteristics determine the success of the confisage process.

Unlike other products on the market that use standardized blends or barks, our rigorous selection ensures a top-of-the-range product, adapted to the requirements of craftsmen and professionals in the food industry.

A slow jamming process for perfect texture

Candying is a crucial stage in the processing of peels. We use a vacuum confisage process that lasts around 20 days. This slow, gentle method enables the sugar to penetrate gradually to the heart of the fruit, while preserving the elasticity of the skin and avoiding excess sweetness.

With a °Brix level of 74, our cubes have a firm texture, neither sticky nor too soft, and offer a well-balanced sweet sensation that doesn’t mask the natural orange flavor. This sugar level also ensures excellent shelf life, even after opening, if the product is stored properly.

A practical format for all your preparations

The 6 x 6 mm format has been specifically designed to suit a wide variety of professional uses. Small enough to fit into a dough without unbalancing it, yet large enough to retain its visual and taste identity, this format is highly appreciated for its versatility.

Here are a few ideas for use:

• Patisserie: use them in sponge cakes, cakes, muffins, brioches, gingerbread or even cookie dough to add a fruity, original touch.

• Chocolaterie: dip them in dark or milk chocolate, make modern orangettes or use them as inclusions in chocolate bars and bonbons.

• Confectionery: perfect for nougats, homemade cereal bars, fruit jellies and other sweets.

• Decoration: use as a topping for entremets, ice creams, yule logs, galettes des rois or cupcakes.

• Glacerie artisanale: they can be incorporated into ice creams, sorbets or even used as decoration to add crunch and color.

A healthy, natural product without controversial additives

Our candied orange peels are guaranteed to contain no added sulfites, which meets the expectations of many consumers who are sensitive or allergic to these preservatives. What’s more, we add no artificial colors or flavors. The bright orange color and fruity taste are only obtained through the quality of the raw material and our candying know-how.

Professional preservation and packaging

Available in 1.5 kg food-grade buckets, these cubes are easy to store, use and dose as required. The resealable bucket guarantees good storage at room temperature (in a dry, cool, dark place). This makes them an ideal product for professionals looking for cost-effectiveness and practicality on a daily basis.
