Ruby Seeto, Starship & Wallace Cotton
We’ve been working with Ruby Seeto since 2009, when she was an 11 year old cancer survivor, designing tea towels to fundraise for Starship. Every year, Ruby creates a new design which is produced and sold by Wallace Cotton. This year, Ruby has shared how to create dehydrated citrus slices on her colourful tea towel. With a recipe as simple as it is beautiful, read on to discover how to make the citrus slices and 3 ways we’re using them this spring.
Designed to be used with ease when entertaining, Ruby has shared how to create her dehydrated citrus slices. Use whichever citrus you have handy – our personal picks are sweet oranges and tangy grapefruit.
• Slice citrus thinly, place on a lined tray or wire rack and bake in oven for 2-4 hours at 100 degrees celcius
• Flip the citrus over half way
• Once cool, use to decorate!
Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion, hosting loved ones, or just feel like something sweet, treat your tastebuds to a delicious citrus cake this spring. We used a recipe by The Caker, and decorated it with our dried citrus along with lemon and lime zest.

Dried Citrus 2: Drink Garnishes
We can’t think of a better way to greet the arrival of spring than with a fruity cocktail or mocktail. We’re in love with the simplicity of sangria and can’t wait to try new recipes. When garnished with a slice of dried citrus, you’re sure to impress your guests with minimal effort required.
Add a layer of interest to your tablescaping this season with pretty dried citrus slices. Scatter a selection of brightly coloured citrus slices across a beautiful tablecloth to make them pop. Add fresh flowers or herbs, candles and beautiful napkins to complete the look. Enjoy your spring gatherings – and be sure to share with us how you’re using your citrus slices!
