Marzipan

Marzipan

Everyday

Marzipan is a pliable almond-based confection made from finely ground almonds, sugar, and sometimes egg whites or honey. This sweet modeling paste is prized in European baking for its smooth texture and ability to hold intricate shapes, making it ideal for decorative candies and traditional desserts like stollen. While high in sugar, it provides modest protein and healthy fats from almonds, though commercial varieties may include additives that alter its nutritional profile.
