  Using a teaspoon, roll the candy into small balls between your palms and place them on a baking sheet covered with foil.

  In a small bowl, blend together the 1 cup of powdered sugar and 1 1/2 Tbsp orange juice with a handheld electric mixer. It should be fluid but not too runny; adjust the amount of sugar or juice as necessary to get a good dipping consistency.
