¼ - ½tspalmond extract

Instructions
Orange Marzipan
Combine all but the water in a food processor and blend to combine. Scrape down the sides and under the blade to ensure all mixes evenly.
Add water, or additional maple syrup, as needed to bring the mix together into a ball.
Roll out on a piece of greaseproof paper or a Teflex sheet to approx ¾ - 1 inch and cut into squares or rectangles. Alternatively, you could cut using a cookie cutter for your choice or roll into small balls.
Place on a greaseproof paper lined baking tray and set in the fridge about 4 hours - overnight. This will firm them up a little, but if you want them firm use some coconut oil or cocoa butter in the recipe in place of water or additional maple. About 5g-10g will do the trick.
