Almond paste adds sweet nutty flavor to cakes, pastries and more. Our carefully-selected almond paste contains 67% select grade almonds so you can be sure that you’re getting a quality product.

The paste adds a delicate depth to any dessert you make. The subtle sweetness of the almonds coupled with the natural fruitiness makes it a pantry staple. From scrumptious almond cookies and fruit tarts to delectable almond croissants and wedding cakes, the possibilities are endless!

Almond Paste vs. Marzipan

Almond paste generally contains 2 parts almonds to 1 part sugar, whereas marzipan contains a higher ratio of sugar to almond. The high almond content of almond paste makes it a wonderful filling for cakes and baked goods, adding a rich almond taste. Marzipan is more pliable than almond paste; it is often molded into candy and eaten as is or rolled out as a fondant for cakes. To make marzipan, you can combine equal parts confectioner’s sugar and almond paste with a touch of light corn syrup.

Storage

Our almond paste is packed in steel cans to preserve freshness. It is good unopened for 2 years from the date on the bottom of the can. Once opened, the paste will stay fresh for a month; we recommend covering the can of unused paste with a layer of plastic wrap and a layer of foil and storing it in the fridge. And, yes, the paste can be frozen so it can last for up to a year (You’re not the only one wondering this)! Just remove the remaining almond paste from the can, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, and store the wrapped paste in a tightly sealed container in the freezer.

The can arrived in the box, wrapped in bubble wrap, but severely dented all around the bottom!! We're very surprised it hasn't leaked !! The packaging and box showed no damage, so we think it was dropped before it was shipped !! Hopefully it will not leak before we use it in March 2024 !! Otherwise, all said, we love your products !! Thanks !!
