"Made from citruses harvested in Ehime Prefecture, Japan. Rinds of KANKITSU are delicately peeled, and candied using traditional methods to enjoy the harmony of sweet and tart. The peels are well-coated with beet sugar and dried completely—in results, the candied peels are not sticky and the sugar does not fall off. They can be enjoyed as is, toppings for yogurts and ice cream, garnish for your favorite drinks, key ingredient for desserts and pastries, coat them with chocolate, and so many other possibilities.
