Marzipan vs. Almond Paste

If you’re confused about the difference between marzipan and almond paste, you aren’t alone. They are very similar in taste, texture, and function and many people mix them up.

The difference comes down mainly to sweetness, as conventional marzipan has a higher sugar content than almond paste. They are a little different in consistency as well, since almond paste is typically made with blanched almonds, whereas marzipan is made from pre-ground almond flour. The result is that marzipan is a bit more cohesive and fine.

Finally, traditional marzipan often contains a little rosewater, which gives it a distinctive flavor.
