The Moro Orange is a sweet, juicy variety that
has a rich orange flavor with a subtle taste of raspberry. It
gets its name from the deep red color in its flesh, not in its
skin. Moro orange is the most colorful of all the oranges. The juice of a moro orange is equally dark, sweet,
and juicy. |
Moro oranges are fat free, cholesterol free, sodium free, and an excellent source of
vitamin C.

Selection & Storage:

juiciness. They can be stored in a loosely wrapped plastic bag in
the refrigerator for about 1 week. |
