That’s a great question Rodriguez48. I suppose there’s nothing to keep you from tempering the chocolate for this recipe, right? I’ve tried to temper before and similarly found I didn’t have any issues with this chocolate and this recipe didn’t call for it so I didn’t take the step. Maybe I’ll try that next time!Does anyone here know more about tempering chocolate to weigh in? I’m no expert and would love to learn.

mf70, I bet a grapefruit version of this would be outstanding! I'm mostly opportunistic and make loads of the orange version because we moved to a place with three orange trees :-) Good call on the temp warning - I'll add this wisdom into the Instructable itself in case people making this don't read the comments. As for the tempering, I think this would make for another great Instructable! I've been deliberate about tempering on some batches and others not so much. There is a difference in the texture - both are delicious.
Never needs an excuse in my book, InsomniCAT! And yeah, they're fun and easy to make and then you can customize them based on the orange you like, amount of sugar vs bitter, and type of chocolate.
Haha this comment just made my day! It's great to be able to use all parts of the orange. It's just now in my house the orange fruit is the piece that we need to work to eat :-)

Hi Kiteman, thanks for the comment. Is there a part you're interested in in particular?
- acoens commented on acoens's instructable Chocolate Dipped Orange Peel - OrangetteView Instructable »
Mmm me too! I tried with lemon peel instead and it was good but not quite the same. Orange + Chocolate = Magic.

Too bad. The video is very helpful and similarly good paired with my digikey links - same content as what used to be on that link.
What a great history of fixes! And even more impressive to take things apart and fix them sans internet resources back in the day. I wonder when I'll encounter this issue again and, when I do, I hope I can puzzle through the fix again! Thanks for the fantastic comment, Phil B!
View Instructable »Hah, I should have added that to the safety warning ;-) Thanks for the kind words, joen - and I can tell from your comment that my Instructable communicated as I hoped it would.

Great instructable! As a fellow backyard pizza fan, I'm going to try incorporating your tips in the next time - like swapping the toppings closer to the crust and cheese on top.
- acoens commented on acoens's instructable Organic Backyard Lemon Curd
Ice cream and lemon curd sounds delicious! Great with a spoon, too ;-)
Desenfocant, two of my favorite flavors are lemon and cinnamon. I'll try whipping up some crema catalana soon!
