HOMEMADE MARZIPAN
I made my own marzipan for my Christmas cake this year and will never ever go back to the stuff they sell in the shops. It was so easy to make and the orange zest gave it a lovely flavour. The recipe is from the November issue of the Good Food magazine.

Steps:
- Sift the sugars and ground almonds together, then stir in the orange zest. Beat together the egg and egg yolk, and stir into the sugar mixture.
- Knead briefly to make sure the marzipan is well mixed, and easy to work with. If it is too dry, add a little orange juice. If it is too wet, add some more icing sugar.
- Place the cake on the cake board and use small balls of marzipan to plug any holes in the cake. Glaze the cake with a thin layer of apricot jam or shredless marmalade.
- Dust the work surface with a little icing sugar and roll out the marzipan in one direction, keeping the pressure even and turning a 1/4 turn every feel rolls.
- When it's large enough (about 40cm for a 20cm cake), roll the marzipan onto the rolling pin and lift onto the cake. Smooth the top with your hands and continue to smooth it over the sides of the cake. Trim the marzipan where it meets the board and leave it to dry overnight.

Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Coarsely chop up almond paste into quarter-size chunks, then place the almond paste in the bowl of a large stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment.
- Add powdered sugar to the bowl and mix on low speed until the mixture has a fine, sandy texture. If you don't have a stand mixer, feel free to use a food processor. Pulse the almond paste and powdered sugar until the mixture resembles wet sand.
- With the mixer on low, slowly add the egg whites until the mixture pulls away from the sides of the bowl and forms a ball. If you are using a food processor, you'll notice a similar change. You may not need to add all of the egg whites.
- Dust a countertop with powdered sugar and knead the marzipan until it develops a smooth, pliable texture. It should have no lumps or dry patches.
- Use the marzipan immediately or store it for later use.
- To store your marzipan, cover it tightly in plastic wrap, then seal it in a plastic bag. Not only will your marzipan stay moist, but it also won't absorb any unfortunate odors or tastes. Marzipan will keep for three months in the refrigerator or up to six months in the freezer. Make sure to bring marzipan to room temperature before using it.
- Enjoy it on your favorite cake or as a tasty, nutty snack.
