Making Marzipan
Ingredients: ------------------ 1 Cup almond paste 2 tablespoons white Karo syrup 1/2 cup marshmallow cream 2 cups (more or less) powdered sugar Method: ------------ Combine the first three ingredients and begin working in the powdered sugar. As it becomes to thick to stir begin kneading in the rest of the sugar until you have a workable dough. • I find this dough to be a little strong on almond flavor. Mixing it with fondant made the dough whiter and also the flavor was much more to my liking. • You can mold this dough using the silicone molds or candy molds. Just chill the item before trying to remove it from the mold. i.e. houses and nuts. • Free hand modeling can be done by simply adding more powdered sugar to the dough until it is firm but not dry. • Any cutter you have on hand can be used for cutting out leaves, stars, lettering and etc.
