what to do with leftover marzipan?I marzipanned the Christmas cake at the weekend and now I have a ball of leftover marzipan in the fridge. I don't want to just throw it away but I don't really want it living in my fridge until next Christmas so I was wondering if anyone had any cunning ideas as to what I could do with it.
(and no Stollen-related suggestions please)

Make it into little balls and eat it. If you are feeling creative add colouring and make little fruits.

Mix it with chopped nuts and fruit, roll it into balls and dip in melted chocolate, put in Petit four cases and eat, or marzipan fruits, food colouring and Tue careful molding would work, just Google image it and you will get Tue idea.

let the Sherbling make you a marzipan 'something' to decorate the cake with. Never too young to be practicing her banquet subtleties!

My thoughts exactly!

And mine.
Like Sally has said though, we have started making decorations out of marzipan to decorate the cake with.

Buy dates, stone them, and stuff with marzipan (and maybe a sliver of almond).

And then post them to me.

scones ?
5mm cubes in the dough work well

pear and marzipan pastries are nice

Make a Stollen Loaf with the marzipan running down the middle....
That's if there is ANY left over from all those other delish ideas!

thanks for all your suggestions, I think I may be using a few of them.
I won't say I didn't think about taking a huge quantity of marzipan up to my room and eating it before anyone noticed, but I was good and put it in the fridge instead.

Still the best idea... You've worked for it!
