[Sca-cooks] Marzipan Outcome

Molli-zpan Rose mentioned:

What is "Sugar Pane"? Is this the same as sugar paste or sugar plate?

My apologies if you've already checked out these files, but there are  
a lot of good answers on technique as well as some project ideas in  
these two files in the FOOD-SWEET section of the Florilegium:
marzipan-msg      (85K)  6/18/04    Use of marzipan (almond paste) in  
sotelties.
sugar-paste-msg  (104K)  6/29/03    Making sugar paste sotelties.

Perhaps this one might also be of interest:
Sgr-a-Cnftns-art  (20K) 12/26/00    "Of Sugar and Confections" by Alys
                                        Katharine, O.L., O.P. (Elise  
Fleming).

I don't have the URL immediately available, but for some ideas you  
might also want to take a look through the photographs that Olwen has  
of her multitude of marzipan projects.
