Olwen asked: 
What kind of shapes are you making?  

Ooh, ooh, let me guess (raising hand and waving) - 
Peach pits?
Just a shot in the dark...

Not this time, no.  Peach pits are a Spanish recipe, and this feast is German and French.

I'm mostly doing seashells, and perhaps some leaves.  Maybe some additional shapes, if I find an interesting mold.  This isn't for a subtlety -- I just want to serve marzipan on the dessert table, and I want to serve it in an attractive shape.
