Chocolate-Coated candied orange peel, by Confiserie Florian: the elegance of an exceptional confectionery

Delicate, refined, and rich in nuances, chocolate-coated candied orange peel stands out as an exceptional confection. At Confiserie Florian, it reveals the full art of French taste, enhancing candied orange peel with intense dark chocolate, in a perfect balance of textures and aromas. A rare sweet treat that captivates the most demanding palates.

Each chocolate-coated candied orange peel meets precise requirements in terms of raw materials and preparation. Our master confectioners meticulously select oranges with distinct aromas, slowly candying them to the core, then delicately hand-coating them in rich, high-cocoa dark chocolate. The crunch of the chocolate meets the fruity tenderness of the orange, offering a subtle yet intense harmony during tasting.

Chocolate-coated candied orange peel, an icon of gourmet heritage

The history of chocolate-coated candied orange peel has its roots in the heyday of Mediterranean confectionery, when fruits were candied to reveal their essence and extend their preservation. With the arrival of cocoa in Europe, an alliance became obvious: that of orange peel and dark chocolate. Together, they create a rare gustatory accord, both vibrant and warming.

At Confiserie Florian, we honour this tradition by adding our signature: a constant demand for quality, a sensory approach to the product, and meticulous attention to detail at every stage of manufacturing.

A confectionery with multiple uses

Conceived as an exceptional delicacy, chocolate-coated candied orange peel is also perfect for your tasting moments, as well as for your most thoughtful gifts.

• In a gift box, it becomes a refined present to offer to aesthetes of taste.
• Served with a rare coffee or a smoky black tea, it sublimates an elegant break.
• Integrated into homemade pastry, it brings a chocolate mousse to life, enhances a shortbread biscuit, or punctuates a ganache with its orangey sparkle.

Much more than a sweet treat: a sensory experience

The secret to successful chocolate-coated candied orange peel lies in the choice of its raw materials. It involves the careful selection of oranges picked at maturity, candied using a slow and respectful method, and dark chocolate of exceptional aromatic richness.

Upon tasting, each piece of chocolate-coated candied orange peel reveals a controlled intensity, a silky length on the palate, and a contrasting texture that awakens the senses. At the crossroads of tradition and contemporary excellence, it embodies the discreet elegance of French artisanal confectionery.

How to store your chocolate-coated candied orange peel

• At room temperature: In an airtight box, away from light, humidity, and heat. Avoid overly warm rooms or those exposed to direct sunlight.
• Shelf life: Several months if properly protected.
• In the refrigerator: Not recommended, as this can cause the chocolate to bloom (the appearance of a white film due to cocoa butter crystallisation).
