WTH?!?! Gimme that!

 

[shyvas]

Did you buy vegan marzipan SR ?

 

[KLS52]

Yikes! Marzipan isn't vegan???

*googling*

 

[SummerRain]

When isn't marzipan vegan?

But nonetheless, I did because it was Sainsburys and it says vegan on the packet (added in a link for you) But marzipan should just be almonds + sugar (+ colour if it's yellow).

I found one with egg whites and one with honey. Very interesting...

Oh how annoying, now that I look other ones in the supermarket have egg white too, I had just never looked at them.

Shyvas, if you can't find vegan marzipan in France maybe it's another thing to stock up on in the UK?

Authentic marzipan is made with ground almonds, icing sugar and egg whites.

SR - I usually make my own marzipan as I don't like sugar in desserts. One thing less to bring back from the UK, right ?

Brownie mix.

I have definitely seen vegan marzipan in France (I almost lived on it for a couple of days when I couldn't find much else! )

It's just chocolate cake, but I went nuts with rainbow colours and tips.

Oh gosh, never. I've worked in kitchens and I absolutely hate it.

Just a dear hobby, until maybe I get a better camera and I make some money off blogging.

Did a bit of catering for a friend: vegan, gluten free funfetti cupcakes. She organized a circus themed baby shower (she's in the circus). I picked the liners and made the flags with no prior knowledge of the set-up! It worked so well.

What a cool cake, Renee!

The circus cupcakes/set up is great, Renee!

RM, that looks so good...is that peanut butter I see? Is it a cake or brownie?
