What’s
the difference between Almond Paste and Marzipan?
Both Almond Paste and Marzipan have the same ingredients;
almonds, sugar and glucose.
Marzipan is milled to
a smoother consistency, and has more
sugar. Because of this, Marzipan is more pliable. This allows for
easier rolling out and modeling.
Almond Paste’s
higher almond content gives it a stronger flavor. It
is used as an ingredient in baked goods.
My
Almond Paste/Marzipan has been in the cupboard for a while
and has become hard. What can I do?
What has happened is that the sugar has crystallized. Try
to
"revive" using the following method. Place the unwrapped
roll in a
plastic bag, together with two slices of bread, or an apple that
has
been cut in half. Leave the sealed bag on the counter overnight.
Often this will make the product soft again.
