Crafted from citrus fruits harvested in Ehime Prefecture, Japan, these dried candied yuzu peels showcase the perfect balance of bright citrus flavor and natural sweetness. Made using traditional methods, the peels are delicately prepared and coated with beet sugar before being dried completely, ensuring a non-sticky texture where the sugar stays in place.
Yuzu is known for its soothing aroma, pleasant tartness, and subtle bitterness, making these candied peels a unique treat with a depth of flavor. They can be enjoyed as a snack on their own or used to enhance a variety of dishes. Sprinkle them over yogurt, ice cream, or sorbet. Garnish your favorite drinks, from cocktails to teas. Incorporate them into pastries, cakes, and baked goods for an elevated citrus twist. They also pair beautifully with chocolate, nuts, granola, and cheese, adding a refined and refreshing touch to both sweet and savory creations.
Made with 100% natural citrus from Ehime, these candied yuzu peels contain no artificial colors, fragrances, or preservatives. They are gluten-free, lactose-free, non-GMO, and completely vegan-friendly. Their naturally sweet and tart flavor, combined with a delightful chewy texture, makes them a versatile addition to your pantry.
