Sorry, I’m too focused on that CREEPYASS MARZIPAN BABY!

Go with the Marzipan for your Marziparty. And splurge for the 8 pound one. if all else fails, at least you could make a marzipan doorstop.

What’s the difference between Almond Paste and Marzipan?
Both Almond Paste and Marzipan have the same ingredients; almonds, sugar and glucose.

Marzipan is milled to a smoother consistency, and has more sugar. Because of this, Marzipan is more pliable. This allows for easier rolling out and modeling.

Almond Paste’s higher almond content gives it a stronger flavor. It is used as an ingredient in baked goods.

all that is in marzipan is almond paste and sugar (and SOMETIMES an egg white or two), so if you’re looking for volume, you may as well give making your own a shot. it think there might be a “trick” to getting the right consistency though, so if you’re concerned about it looking/feeling right for sculpting (ha!) maybe go for the pre-made stuff.

i think 7 pounds is a lot in either case, so you’ll have either have plenty or shit tons, depending on which way you go.
