How to make real good Marzipan from scratch

In this video I show how to make the famous almond candy called marzipan. Find more info here: http://mygiguser.com/marzipan.html This video shows how to make high quality marzipan from scratch. If you ask, why my recipe is better than others here on the internet, then keep reading, and I will explain: I do NOT use eggs in my recipe! (That eliminates the possibility of introducing harmful bacteria to my marzipan e.g. salmonella) This recipe contains alcohol not only for best taste, but also to preserve the marzipan and prevent the growth of bacteria, fungi, or any other micro-organisms. So what makes the almonds stick together, if I can't use eggs? The binding components are the almond oil, that is released, when processing the almonds in the food processor, and the powdered sugar. The sugar is also a very good preservative. Together with the alcohol, it keeps the marzipan in good shape for a long time. But believe me that it tastes so good, that it doesn't last long at all. You probably eat it all before it has a chance to go bad. The only enemy the marzipan has, is air. It will dry out quickly. Make sure you store it in an air tight container, such as an old ice cream cup (as I do), or in a plastic bag. The fancy way to protect your marzipan from air, is to cover it in chocolate. What could or should you do with marzipan? You can cover it in dark chocolate and make very good tasting snacks from it. If you plan on covering a cake with a thin layer of marzipan, then I recommend to use more powdered sugar in the recipe. It won't taste as good, but it is easier to work with, when you roll it out into a thin layer. I won't rip as fast. Marzipan for cakes usually uses cheaper ingredients, because the most important part of a cake is the cake itself, and not the marzipan layer around it.
