Sicilian Orangettes Hand-Candied Tarocco Orange Peel Dipped in Ecuadorian Dark Chocolate
The taste of Sicily's volcanic slopes in every bite.
Tarocco oranges — revered as the "queen of oranges" — grow on the sun-drenched slopes of Mount Etna, where volcanic soil and Mediterranean climate create citrus of extraordinary character. Sweet, complex, with the delicate berry-like notes that only the finest blood oranges possess.
What makes these extraordinary:
✨ Tarocco blood oranges from Mount Etna - The sweetest, most prized variety of blood orange in Italy. Grown in volcanic soil that imparts unmatched flavor and natural minerality.
✨ Hand-candied in Sicily by a small artisan producer - A traditional slow-candying process that takes days, using organic methods with no pesticides. Each peel is treated with meticulous care.
✨ Hand-dipped in New York - I dip each piece in 65% single-origin Ecuadorian dark chocolate, then let them air-dry for days to achieve perfect texture and snap.
✨ The experience: Sweet with a whisper of bitterness, slightly chewy with a delicate crisp. The dark chocolate enrobes the candied peel — bitter cacao meeting sweet-tart citrus in elegant, sophisticated balance.
✨ Small-batch artisan craft - Made in tiny batches, available only when Sicily's Tarocco season allows. Never frozen, never rushed.
Perfect for: Citrus lovers, those who appreciate traditional European confections, thoughtful gifts for refined palates, after-dinner indulgence with espresso or dessert wine.
Limited seasonal availability - These orangettes are crafted only when Mount Etna's Tarocco oranges are at their peak.
