And in case you really don't know and haven't looked it up, yet, it's a sweet almond paste and here's a link to a recipe: https://www.daringgourmet.com/how-to...-almond-paste/ Clara I'm with you on the nougat, too! |

Poor Gary You've obviously never eaten fruit cake with marzipan and icing. So sad
Clara, Yum on the nougat suggestion If I ever get these tomatoes stabilized (or if Early Annie tastes as good) I'll be happy to share seeds Linda |

I finally looked up A.U. It's Altajskij Urozajnit - so you can understand why we refer to it as Hey You!
A great tasting compact red and almost as good as my "marizipan flavoured" one! Linda |

Closest I can come to that is assorted candies (think just about anything) glazed with royal frosting. Helping build ~100 gingerbread houses in an evening is where that sugar rush happens. The children, they go directly for the royal frosting, squeezing it right out of the pastry bags straight into their mouths. |

Yes Gary! the cake has a thin (quarter inch?) layer of marzipan over the top which makes it smooth and flat for the icing which goes on top. Christmas cakes and wedding cakes are often made that way - at least they used to be in the UK. Yum yum
It's really too bad that sugar is so bad for our health Linda |

Wedding cake that's what I was thinking!
Glorious stuff but you only ever get a small piece, so no harm in that. |
