You might be able to buy some already made but actually it really depends the country you live in. It might be handy to know how it is made, especially because it is sooooooo easy!
Do you know what it almond paste? Or maybe almond icing? The thing pastry people use to decorate cakes with flowers...
Ingredient for a hand full:
- 1 cup grounded almonds
- 1 cup icing sugar
- 2 Tbsp water
- few drops of almond essence (facultative)
- 1 drop of food coloring *
1) mix the almonds with the sugar
2) add the water
3) mix with a spoon at first
4) add the essence if you like + food coloring
5) go with the hands, it's PlayDoh time!
6) mix, squeeze until smooth
7) use what you need and keep the rest in the fridge in a plastic film for couple of days/weeks
8) creation is yours!
*[for pink flowers, you may use beetroot juice - cut and touch the paste with slices and repeat until pink!]
