SCAdian who'd be glad to make it for you at cost or for a sufficiently 
low markup as to make it cheaper, more convenient, and at no lesser 
quality than an imported product?"

I often go to the UK, most often York, at this time of year and have 
found that the marzepan that I buy from confectioners there is far 
superior to anything I'm able to buy here in Colorado.  So I figured 
that it was a "European" thing and that since I'm going to Munich this 
year instead of the UK that I'd try to get a batch there and bring it 
home to use for my 12th night feast.
