Marzipan dogs, cats and berries

The peeled almonds are dried and grated on a fine grater. The syrup is boiled to the consistency of the hard ball sample (as is the case with protein glaze). Then they put the rubbed almonds in it and, stirring, heat for several minutes. After that, transfer the mass from the pan to a slightly oiled baking sheet and cool. Cooled mass is passed through meat grinder with frequent grid. If marzipan is too soft, do not be upset, add a little icing sugar to it and mix again. Chilled boiled water is added to the hard marzipan, or even better - 1 teaspoon of starch brewed in boiling water. But now there is a real scope for creative imagination. How to make marzipan figures? If you are completely unimaginative, you can make figures from marzipan using molds. But in fact, there is a chance to portray a whole scene from your own life, and then for greater persuasiveness you can paint marzipan figures with food dyes dissolved in wine alcohol. You can also simply cover the cake with a thin sheet of rolling marzipan or use it as a filling.
