Marzipan
Marzipan is a sweet confection made primarily from almond paste, sugar, and sometimes egg whites, resulting in a smooth, pliable dough. It’s often used in baking and confectionery to create decorative figures, cakes, or fillings. With its rich almond flavor and moist texture, marzipan can be molded into intricate shapes or rolled out as a layer. Beyond its culinary uses, it’s popular in various cultural sweets and desserts, especially in European traditions. Its versatility and distinctive taste make it a favored ingredient for both pastry art and confectionery treats.
