American Best Food Sweet Diced Lemon Peel, Candied Lemon Peel Diced, Fruit Glaze 1 Pound

I purchase this to use in the Christmas stollen we make each year. So much higher in quality than the little containers one finds in the markets. Making stollen is a laborious job and uses a lot of expensive ingredients. If you are going to do it you want to get the best and this makes a significant improvement in the taste of the final product.

If Amazon offered a negative star rating, this product would get it.The photo of the package tells the story. The liquid you see I suppose is glucose. It is sickeningly sweet and overpowers the little lemon taste the product possesses. The lemon taste is very faint and fleeting, I don't think it would be detectable when baking. It is very similar to the cheap, sticky products you can buy in the supermarket.For candied peel to bake with I expect it to be dry and a little firm, maybe some sugar crystals on it. This is anything but that.I was fooled by the photo in the product description. It looks fairly dry so I took a chance and ordered. I should have known to not purchase a product without any reviews. This turned out to be similar to most of the poorly rated, sticky products offered and reviewed on Amazon.I opened it to taste just to verify it was as bad as it looked so I'm assuming I can't return it. It's a $14.00 lesson for me.I did order their candied orange peel at the same time, but it is not to be delivered until next week. If if looks the same in the package, I will not open it and just return for a refund.Edit: I didn't realize grocery items are not eligible for refund, so I'm stuck for both this purchase and the orange peel coming tomorrow. A $28.00 lesson.

Love this product. I use it in lemon desserts like lemon loaf. Use the loaf with fresh berries and lots of fresh whipped cream. Good!

Just received these. They are horrible. Will not buy again.

In the off season it is very difficult to find candied fruits for recipes. The ease of ordering and timely delivery by the vendor was greatly appreciated.

Dislike, the worst product. No taste, bad texture, a terrible waste of money, even more disappointing!!😡😡I was anticipating something that would have great taste and compliment my baking. I can’t shout loud enough that this is awful!! I want my money back!!!It’s so bad, there is not an appropriate rating.

Wet, sticky, gummy, overly sweet with absolutely NO lemon flavor! Just disgusting! DO. NOT. BUY!!!
