Lemon curd and orange in crispy wonton cups

This is my second trial to wonton cups. Last time, with the  strawberry "tartlets" made of the same crisp wonton cups, I had a very interesting dessert which is not only simple to make but tastes really well too. 

Making dessert with wonton skins is a new experience to me. After preparing the wonton skins with the same method when making those for strawberry tartlets, I filled them with lemon curd and two or three orange wedges, then sprinkled with tiny shaved chocolate. Because the wonton skins are barely sweet at all, I increased the sugar in the lemon curd I usually make.
