Does anyone know of a commercially made marzipan that is made with pure vanilla and not extract?  Thanks.

The Odense that I have in my cabinet right now has no vanilla of any kind: are you specifically trying to find one with vanilla, or just without extract?

Hmmm...not sure. It was a request from a customer. Maybe its only in the organic marzipans - the one I get from Italy has extract and she wants a non-extract version. I've got a call in to the customer to find out more.

When I don't make my own, I use this as the flavor is more pronounced than others I have tried.

or this

I have used both but generally buy the almond paste - maybe it is the 7-pound tin that I like.

Personal preference, I guess.

Avoid cutting yourself while slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them while you chop away.
