When I began doing peel I used to do them together.  When you try seperating
them you will find truer colour and much more flavor of the particular
fruit.  It is more time consuming doing them individually, but the quality
makes up for it!  I often use the syrup to make candy after the fruit peel
is removed.
Let me know how you like your results.
