Pre-prep: Make topping. Remove peel of orange with a vegetable peeler or grate orange peel.

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Place the orange peel in a food processor or blender with the sugar. Keep motor running until sugar turns orange and peel is no longer visible. Or, grate the peel and stir it into the sugar by hand.

2. Spread blackberries and rhubarb in the bottom of a 9x13-inch glass baking dish; sprinkle with flavored sugar and flour.

3. Evenly "blob" topping onto filling and, with fingers, spread over all the fruit. (Be patient, as the very moist topping sticks to your fingers. Some fruit will show through.)

4. Bake for 60 to 70 minutes, until top is dark golden brown and has a dull sound when thumped.
