ooh, thank you for my new-thing-learned-today! "domino stones" (and it wasn't easy, there is not much on-line) 

I don't have much German culinary background, so "domino stones" was a complete mystery, but sounded interesting. 

I found this advert.  http://www.jung-europe.com/season-products/christmas/christmas-cookies/double_domino_stone 
and this Wiki stub  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominostein
which led me to this  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persipan which I had REALLY never heard of, but since I love regular marzipan, almonds AND apricots & peaches, am absolutely fascinated.

what kind of domino stones did you get exactly? anything like what is in the links, or other variations? oh, rum filling or traditional? (got a google-translate of the Zutaten article on the Wiki page... let's see if this url is too long... http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=de&u=http://lexikonn.de/Dominostein&prev=/search%3Fq%3DZutaten%2Bauf%2BWeihnachtskram%2Boft%2Bnicht%2Blesbar%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dsafari%26tbo%3Dd%26rls%3Den&sa=X&ei=nv_hUMmeK5G0igLh6ICIAw&ved=0CF8Q7gEwBw  --OK, if you copy the entire thing in one gulp, it should pick it all up )

thx,
chimene
