Chocolate-Dipped Orange Slices (THC)  
(10 mg THC each · 30 slices · 300 mg total batch)

Candied orange slices half-dipped in dark chocolate. Bright citrus, bitter chocolate, perfect crack. Zero weed taste.

Decarboxylation  
1.2 g flower @ 22–25 % THC (or 0.6 g good kief)  
240 °F for 40 minutes in sealed mason jar → ~300 mg usable THC

Infusion  
200 g 70–75 % dark chocolate (buttons or chopped) + ½ tsp liquid sunflower lecithin  
Melt chocolate to 115 °F → add decarbed flower → hold 185 °F sous-vide 2 hours  
Strain hard through 90-micron → crystal-clear 300 mg THC chocolate

Candied Oranges  
4 large navel or cara cara oranges  
2 cups (400 g) granulated sugar  
2 cups (480 ml) water  
extra ½ cup sugar for tossing

Steps

1. Slice oranges into 4–5 mm wheels (about 30 slices total). Remove seeds.

2. Blanch slices in boiling water 2 minutes → shock in ice bath (removes bitterness).

3. In wide pan, dissolve 2 cups sugar in 2 cups water → add slices in single layer.  
   Simmer gently 45–60 minutes until translucent and syrup thickens.

4. Remove slices to wire rack → cool 2 hours (or overnight).

5. Toss gently in extra sugar → shake off excess.

6. Temper THC chocolate (or simply melt slowly to 90 °F).  
   Dip each slice halfway → place on parchment.

7. Chill 15 minutes until set.

Storage  
Airtight tin with parchment between layers → 1 month room temp  
Fridge → 3 months

Dosing  
300 mg ÷ 30 = 10 mg exact per slice  
One slice = elegant dessert buzz  
Two slices you’re writing love letters to citrus

Bright orange flavor cuts through the chocolate, the sugar shell gives a soft crunch, then the dark chocolate melts.  
The prettiest edible you’ll ever make—and the easiest to share (or not).  
Keep them in the fridge and they stay dangerous.
