National Marzipan Day
Marzipan is a confection consisting primarily of sugar or honey and almond meal, sometimes augmented with almond oil or extract. Some people dip it in chocolate. It can also be used to make fun shaped embellishments on cakes and other treats. The earliest written references of “marzipan” come from Italy and Spain in the 16th century.
National Marzipan Day is celebrated annually on January 12th. Check out our recipes listed below and give one a try!
