I have made these for the last 2 Christmases to go into your Golden Fruit Cake. This month I've ended up with pink grapefruits, lemons, and blood oranges. You said we could freeze the rinds until we were ready to candy the peels. Should the parboiling to remove the bitterness be done before freezing? If not, do the peels hold up after thawing and parboiling before candying?
