marzipan
Marzipan is not considered a pastry. Marzipan is a confection made of ground almonds or almond paste, egg whites, and sugar, often molded into decorative shapes. It can also be used to cover a cake as icing and can also be a filling for chocolates.
They are marzipan. Marzipan is made from almond flour and sugar. It is turned into a paste and molded into shapes or objects.
The best decorations for a marzipan covered cake would be made of colored, molded marzipan or royal frosting.
As long as the marzipan is chilled (cold to touch) so that it will be firm for you to build the Royal Icing against then yes you can.
Marzipan under fondant icing makes the cake too sweet, because fondant icing makes the cake too sweet on their own. It is better to use a buttercream with less sugar.
Marsipan is made from icing sugar, ground almonds and the white of egg.
No. You should wait until the cake is completely cooled before adding icing. Also, you can wait until just before the cake is to be served to icing, or you can ice the cake as far as a day in advance.
Yes you can, but I would strongly recommend that you only but one or the other on the cake because marzipan tastes horrible with any topping apart from icing. Also marzipan is unbelievably high in sugar! Hope this helps.. x:)
