These have a spiced, very orange flavor, and NOT overly sweet. Can be used as an accompaniment for roasted duck or chicken; a garnish for desserts; eaten with cheese. A slice on a toasted and buttered English muffin is delicious. Modified from a recipe from an Australian News website.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my preserved oranges turned out really bitter. I think I might have used too much sugar.

I found this recipe to be a bit too complicated. There are too many steps and it takes too long to make. I'll stick to buying my preserved oranges from the store.

I followed the recipe exactly but the oranges didn't turn out as expected. They were too soft and lacked the vibrant color I was hoping for.
