And there is marzipan and marzipan, the cheap one can make you sicker than a dog, the good one is a gift from heaven just like dark chocolate.

She's the best! but probably about as tasty as actual marzipan, which is to say: not very. IMO, it's really the German OBSESSION with marzipan that makes it bad. When they use marzipan, they are not shy about it. The cute little marzipan and chocolate candies they make (and love) are really marzipan candies with chocolate optional. The rolled marzipan ain't bad though. ;0) I have to admit, I am not a big fan of the marzipan, except for the character from homestarrunner.com.
