Our dried orange peel is produced from mature sweet oranges. Like the flesh and juice of the fruit, the edible peel lends a bright, citrusy flavor and aroma to a variety of foods and natural cosmetics.
The juice of this variety of orange typically graces the breakfast table, but the peel is actually where the majority of nutrients and oils reside. In fact, the peel contains close to the same amount of vitamin C as well as pectin, fiber, potassium, magnesium, folic acid, limonene, carotenoids, and more than 50 flavonoids.
