Creative Marzipan
Don’t worry! The marzipans you will learn in this class have nothing to do with those overly-sweet commercial ones that taste like bitter almond extract -and that everyone hates for a reason-.

And to top it off? They have a great shelf life!
We will kick off this Class paying tribute to one of the most beloved American classics: cookie dough marzipan! And the repertoire only gets better: cacao nib, yuzu, black sesame, strawberry kalamata, espresso, and coconut marzipan are all included.
