This ready-to-use marzipan combines the delicate, natural flavor of sustainably grown California almonds with a smooth, pliable texture that pastry chefs and home bakers rely on. Its pale hue keeps colored finishes true, and the paste is formulated to be easy to roll, shape and sculpt detailed figures, decorations and confectionery accents without cracking or sticking.

How does this marzipan perform for rolling and covering cakes?
