little chocolates with marzipan

This is my first try to make some little chocolates (pralines).

They have a "heart" of marzipan and are covered with semi-sweet chocolate.

marzipan-lime cookies

I found a recipe for marzipan cookies on the internet and since my friends from France brought me a lot of marzipan when they visited us, I decided to bake these cookies.

When I ate one of them I found them a little bland - so I decided to cover them with a lime icing. The combination of the sweet marzipan and the fresh lime is juicy.

Marzipan Apple Cake with a nut base

Thanks to two friends (thanks Anna and Rita) I got marzipan from Germany.
It took me a while to decide what to bake with it. Finally I choose an apple cake with a nut base, covered with a marzipan topping.

Next time, when I'll bake this cake again I'll fold in the whipped egg white in the marzipan-suggar mixture to make it more fluffy.
