Orangettes - Dark chocolate

Orangettes are an artisanal confectionery made from candied orange peel coated with 65% dark chocolate. This specialty is very popular in Belgium, but is also appreciated in many other countries.

To prepare orangettes, the orange peels are first blanched to remove their bitterness, then they are candied in a sugar syrup. Once candied, the barks are coated in melting dark chocolate to give them a crunchy texture and a rich, sweet flavor.

Orangettes can be enjoyed as a delicacy or as an accompaniment to coffee or tea and even a good Belgian beer. They are also often given as gifts or used to decorate cakes and desserts. With their unique blend of sweet and bitter flavors, orangettes are a delicious and refined delicacy that will appeal to chocolate and citrus lovers.
