Yay! You won’t regret it 🧡

I’m so glad you found it helpful! ❤️

Thanks Debra! That sounds like such a fun day with your granddaughters

Thank you so much!

Sure! I mostly use these to decorate with, but you can also use them to garnish cocktails or hot tea. Another idea is to combine them with cloves and cinnamon sticks then simmer in water on the stove to make your house smell nice! Just keep an eye on the pot to be sure it doesn't boil over :)

Thanks Amy! I did 200 degrees F 👍

@@BloomintheBlack Great, thank you so much! Have a great day

None at all! It worked beautifully. Dabbing the slices with paper towels before placing them in the oven makes a huge difference as far as any juices that release during baking.

@@BloomintheBlack Thank you so much for your reply.

I put the oranges on parchment paper. I'm not sure what butter paper is but if that has a wax coating, don't use it! The time varies based on how hot your oven runs and how thick your slices are. Flip the slices every 30 minutes and look for them to turn slightly translucent and dry. This will generally take anywhere from 2 - 6 hours. You could use these to decorate the outside of candles, but of course, exercise caution when they are lit since the oranges are flammable.

200 degrees F!

It’s actually ground cloves! I only did that to some as a test to see if it would make them smell even better. If you are using them for aesthetic purposes, I would definitely skip adding cloves. If you’re making potpourri, the cloves are a nice touch.

Bonjour à tous! Je ne parle pas français mais si vous allez sur translate.google.com et mettez mon tutoriel comme site Web (bloomintheblack.com/dried-oranges), il traduira le blog en français pour vous. J'espère que ça aide!

Yup, I do struggle with having very oily skin. I hope you don’t have that problem because it’s a real pain. Regardless, I hope you found the video helpful and my face wasn’t too distracting.

Mate foundation and a light dusting of face powder will cut down on the shine.

Was it really necessary to say that? Very petty. Shame on you!
