Candied Orange Peel for cakes, biscuits and ice-cream

Bakery expert Dan Lepard describes it as...

"The thick peel from Italian oranges, cooked until tender then simmered in batches of sugar syrup over days, has an honest delicate orange flavour and subtle sweetness perfect for great fruitcakes, Florentines, and biscuits. A great cupboard standby and good as a gift for baking friends. The size of the peel cut is generous and the texture soft and delectable."
