So easy to make - I am not a baker and certainly not a cake decorator but I put it on my Christmas cake and it tastes delicious - No I have not tasted the cake as yet but the Marzipan tastes great. Thanks Lali for this simple recipe, The texture is just right for shaping little figures for those talented ones that can make them (wish I could)
