Ingredients

2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 cups finely ground blanched almonds
2 egg whites
1 tablespoon brandy
0.25 cup confectioners' sugar, or as needed
assorted food coloring

Instructions

In a blender, mix confectioners' sugar, almonds, egg whites, and brandy until a cohesive marzipan forms. Shape into a ball, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for a minimum of 12 hours, or until firm. If needed, chill for another 6 to 12 hours.
Take the marzipan out of the fridge. Lightly dust your hands with confectioners' sugar and knead the marzipan for about 1 minute. Divide the marzipan into portions based on the variety and quantity of fruits desired. Incorporate food coloring into each portion. To create the fruits, begin with a 1-inch ball of marzipan, molding it into the desired shape, details, and texture.
