DIY Making your own Marzipan Easter Eggs
To make marzipan eggs:
- Ingredients for Marzipan
- 250 gm. Blanced almonds
- 500 gms. Icing sugar
- Rose water for kneading
Powder the almonds and mix with icing sugar. Knead to a soft dough using rose water a little at a time. Divide into equal number of portions for colors you desire. Add a drop or two of the required colors for each portion and knead lightly till the color evens out. Shape into eggs with a mould or with your hands and decorate with flowers etc. using Royal Icing or fondant.
To make Royal Icing
Take egg white in a small bowl and keep adding icing sugar till the mixture becomes thick. If runny add some more icing sugar, if too stiff add a little bit of water or milk till you get the right consistency for piping so that the piped designs hold and stand up in peaks. I must admit, I am not very good in free hand icing designs, but I am sure you all can do better at the designing 😉
