Candied lemon peel
Candied lemon peel is a carefully prepared product obtained through a process of saturating the fruit with sugar syrup, with the addition of food acids, coloring agents, preservatives, and flavorings. As a result, the lemon peel gains an intense color, bold flavor, and durability, making it an essential ingredient in the production and decoration of confectionery and bakery products.
The product is characterized by a high sugar content, which ensures resistance to freezing in frozen desserts and ice cream. Candied lemon peel performs excellently during baking inside dough, retaining its color and structure. Thanks to the drying process, the lemon peel remains free-flowing, does not clump, and is easy to apply.
It is an ideal ingredient for baked goods such as fruit cakes, cheesecakes, bundt cakes, and poppy seed cakes, as well as an excellent addition to creams and nut-and-dried-fruit fillings, and a decoration for cakes, tortes, pastries, and other confectionery products.
