  Step 1

  With a sharp knife, slice an orange (or 2 or 3!) in half, across the middle, not from stem end to bottom end.

  Step 2

  Using a knife or a spoon, scrape out any guts, like you would a pumpkin. You want the insides as smooth as possible. Then use a small cookie cutter or knife to cut a hole in one half of the orange, on the end portion. A little fire escape, so to speak.

• 

  Step 3

  Place the remaining half of the orange in a small bowl, ramekin, or jar and insert a tea light candle. Light the candle, place the cut-out orange half on top and set the mood!

Oranges already make candles on their own as does any citrus fruit, putting candles inside is just wasteful
