Candied Citron for cakes and biscuits
Bakery expert Dan Lepard describes it as...
"One of the oldest citrus fruits, and many of today's modern citrus varieties are related to Citron. It’s the most noble of candied peel, loved by cook and royalty through history, and at last it’s available easily from BakeryBits. The flavour is like a subtle combination of lime and orange, and pairs well with other delicate ingredients. Imported from Italy, with a tender bite and sweet flavour."
