If you don't mind my asking, why do you want to buy it in Munich and
go to the trouble of getting that much of it home, when you should be
able to get it more or less locally? If nothing else, I'll bet
there's a 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?
Or is there some hidden significance to the concept of Münchner Marzipan?
