I make marzipan for a danish Kringle recipe I make. I usually have leftover marzipan so wondered about making those cute little fruits. When reading through recipes I noticed that they don’t get baked. They have egg whites in them so I am a little retacent about it. Has anyone made these?

I love marzipan and I grew up eating it. Did you make these? If so, you did a beautiful job!
I've never really thought much about the egg white.
You can make it without egg white. The best marzipan in the world - Niederegger - uses only almonds, sugar and rosewater.

I’ve never tried it without egg whites. I’ve seen recipes for rosewater and there is some in my cupboard. I like it with almond extract so much but maybe will give it try with rosewater. Thanks!

I tried it with rosewater before and it tasted like soap to me. I think I just have an average American palate when it comes to stuff like that.
