Candied Limone Sfusato Amalfitano peels are a traditional confectionery product made from the thick, intensely fragrant rind of Limone Sfusato Amalfitano IGP. The peels are cut by hand, partially stripped of their bitterness, then slowly candied in sugar syrup until they become soft, glossy, and intensely aromatic. The result is a simple yet refined sweet, with a flavor balanced between sweetness and bright citrus notes. Ho
Candying citrus peels originated as an ancient preservation technique, developed along the Amalfi Coast to avoid wasting any part of the lemon, a fundamental agricultural resource of the region. As early as the medieval period, citrus peels were processed so they could be stored longer and used as: • a sweet to eat on its own • an ingredient for pastry-making • a precious gift for travelers and merchants
In Amalfi, this practice has been passed down through farming families and small artisanal workshops, becoming a local specialty.
The message they carry concerns the value of transformation. Giving this product means recognizing the importance of giving new purpose to what remains. It is a gesture that affirms confidence in the ability to turn the marginal into something meaningful. It suggests that true richness arises from attention to every part of the process.
Candied peels represent: • the ingenuity of Amalfi’s humble cuisine • the value of the lemon as a complete resource • a tradition tied to seasonality and craftsmanship
They are one of the products that best tell the story of the relationship between territory, agriculture, and cuisine.
