• almonds - 400 Grams

Instructions

Blanch the almonds in boiling water for 30 seconds, clean. Grind to the flour. From water and sugar, boil the syrup, cool it. Of all the ingredients knead marzipan dough (you can use a food processor) Divide the resulting mass into 4 equal parts. 3 parts are painted in orange, carefully mixing the dough. 1 part in the same way to paint in green. From the main lumps tear off the ball for the most carrots and a smaller ball for the tops. Prepare a toothpick and knife for further manipulation. We make an orange marzipan sausage, which will be thinner on one side and thicker on the other. Roll out the small thin sausages from the green dough, add them criss-cross and stick to the thicker part of the carrot. We make a shallow hole in the "tops" of the carrot with a toothpick - so we will fasten the layers of marzipan. With the help of a knife, light strokes of the blunt side make the grooves characteristic for carrots - that's all. Carrot is ready to decorate a cake, a cake or any festive table.
