Mandarin orange fruits are smaller than a regular orange 40–80 millimetres (1.6–3.1 in).^[1] Their colour is orange, yellow-orange, or red-orange.^[3] The skin is thin and peels off easily.^[1] Their easiness to peel is an important advantage of mandarin oranges over other citrus fruits.^[3] Just like with other citrus fruits, the endocarp (inner flesh) is separated into segments, which in their turn consist of a large number of elongated cells.^[1] The fruits may be seedless or contain a small number of seeds. Mandarin orange fruits are sweet to taste and can be eaten as whole, in fruit salad, or squeezed to make juice.
