Orange Sweet Peel is a dried citrus peel traditionally used in herbal teas, seasonal comfort blends, brewing, baking, muesli, chocolate and DIY soap projects. It has a bright, zesty orange aroma and naturally contains vitamin C, antioxidants and polyphenols.

It can also be ground for use as a natural exfoliant in rinse-off soap and scrub projects.
