It is also called sweet orange, to distinguish it from the related Citrus × aurantium, referred to as bitter orange. The sweet orange reproduces asexually (apomixis through nucellar embryony); varieties of sweet orange arise through mutations,More info:wiki

This is one of the first recipes I ever made for dinner guests. I was following the Cordon Bleu cookery course in the magazines that arrived at our newsagent every month. These caramelized oranges graced the cover of the very first issue. They were part of a dinner party menu that included potage madrilène, a rich tomato soup with sherry, and poulet Veronique, or chicken with grapes. Those French names were really exotic in the 1970s. I’ve kept all the magazines and carried them with me around the world. While the photography is now very dated, they are a good reference. I still make the oranges in caramel sauce, although often I replace them with tangerines. And now I cook the caramel longer than the ladies of the Cordon Bleu school recommended. A simple and delicious dessert, it is much more interesting when the caramel has a bitter edge. This is a good recipe to try if you are scared of burning the caramel. You can taste the sauce to assess its bitterness before pouring it on the oranges.
