English to German translations [PRO] Cooking / Culinary / citrus fruits
English term or phrase:Seville orange
I am not posting this under Botany because I want to know what this fruit is called in a cooking/shopping environment.
A friend in the U.K. has just told me that she can start making marmelade at last because the Seville oranges have come into the shops. Unfortunately I have never seen any Seville oranges in German shops in January, so I don't know what they are called (or what they would be called if they were sold here).
What Germans call "Orangenmarmelade" is often a sort of jam made with ordinary oranges, I fear.
Any Hobbyköche out there who know the name for this vital ingredient for genuine marmelade?
Explanation: 'Die Sevilla-Orange, auch Bitterorange oder Pomeranze genannt, wird für die Zubereitung der berühmten, englischen Orangen-Marmelade verwendet. ...'
Ich hoffe, das ist hilfreich. In Deutschland habe ich Bitterorangen gesehen, die den typisch bitteren Geschmack der marmalade erzeugen.

Thank you, Volkmar, but even original English marmelade is a poor substitute for the real thing. It is often not nearly bitter enough. That's why I'd like to make my own once I know what to ask for over here.
I have a sneaking feeling that these are the oranges that grow in the streets of Spain, that no self-respecting Spaniard will eat!

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thank you, Sandra! Your link is great, it even has a recipe for marmelade from Mrs Beeton. But it seems I must go to Switzerland to buy the fruit?
