Marzipan, homemade

Marzipan is a paste made mainly from ground almonds and sugar. The figures here describe a homemade recipe rather than a packaged product. It mainly provides carbohydrate and fat, with some protein. Per 100g, it contains 50g of carbohydrate, including 49g of sugars, along with 26g of fat and 10g of protein.

The sugar content is worth noting for people monitoring their sugar intake, while both carbohydrate and fat contribute to its energy content. Marzipan also provides vitamin E, which helps protect cells from oxidative damage. It contains almonds, so it is not suitable for people with an almond allergy. Full nutrient figures are shown in the tables below.
