How I Finally Got Marzipan to Dry Fast

Ever tried making marzipan figures, only to have them stay sticky forever? That was me last week—my unicorn toppers just flopped over! Here’s what actually worked to dry them out fast: 💡 Mix in a little tylose (CMC powder) or gum paste—just a teaspoon per batch. Knead it in well and you’ll feel the marzipan firm up in minutes. ✅ Shape your marzipan first, then lay pieces on parchment paper with space between them. Let them air dry overnight in a cool, dry spot—no fridge needed! 💡 For extra speed, pop the tray in your oven (turned OFF!) with just the oven light on. The gentle warmth and air flow make a huge difference. No more saggy marzipan decorations! #bakingtips #marzipan #cakedecorating #Health #Diet
