That was, in fact, the most important decision for my wedding meal, that we would have buttercream and not fondant on the cake:)<br />Thanks for stopping by and welcome back- I hope your luggage has found you.G in Berlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11168975470282994167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675319476309212487.post-52199278689996855522009-12-25T20:21:00.988-05:002009-12-25T20:21:00.988-05:00I've never had Marzipan but it doesn't loo...I've never had Marzipan but it doesn't look that great to be honest, haha.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02491795869831026753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675319476309212487.post-38370961116899543382009-12-24T14:23:03.539-05:002009-12-24T14:23:03.539-05:00In England they use it rolled out to cover a fruit...In England they use it rolled out to cover a fruit cake that is going to be used either as a Christmas cake or Wedding Cake.

"What IS this and what do I do with it??" <br /><br />Yeah, marzipan is almond paste - just ground almonds and sugar, and there are two types, the type you bake with and the type you can eat as is. That's the kind you got and the Niederegger Lübeck is a famous (and pretty expensive) brand, the king of marzipans, if you like. You're just supposed to cut pieces off and eat it. Aquired taste, though. I can only take so much of the stuff.<br /><br />My husband LOVES marzipan, especially the big chocolate covered "loaves". He would have been all over the ones you got.christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15991148606497381478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675319476309212487.post-76001755130002909402009-12-18T09:30:23.321-05:002009-12-18T09:30:23.321-05:00I think Marzipan is an acquired taste, one I have ...I think Marzipan is an acquired taste, one I have never acquired. I would NEVER give anyone Marzipan (or anything I personally would not eat for that matter).<br /><br />I hope your luggage indeed makes it! You have had luggage mishaps in the past! I just sent my clothes to NJ via FED EX. I do it all the time. This way after a long flight I just walk off the plane. Voila! Clothes are in my room waiting for me! Also my coffee... love it. Have a safe flight and enjoy your visit stateside.

I never find sour cream with added anything, espically chives..the flavor choices here are lacking so your best bet is to make that yourself by adding some in it:)Sonyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01084770522282328112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675319476309212487.post-61259167564542682312009-12-18T07:15:15.028-05:002009-12-18T07:15:15.028-05:00Marzipan is the best thing in the christmas season...Marzipan is the best thing in the christmas season...okay..Eierpunsch too :-))Mikeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12411591249147510343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675319476309212487.post-56504858013155709592009-12-18T06:30:01.683-05:002009-12-18T06:30:01.683-05:00I love marzipan!
