Bergen Marzipan M-1 Assorted Fruit 8 ounce

I bought these as a gift for my father. Christmas is marzipan time. He ate them all in one setting. We were all shocked. They were that good! These are what they are supposed to taste like. This is what you want when you get marzipan. The shipping time was a tad long. I will say that, but it was during the holiday season so I’m not surprised. All in all it’s OK. Everyone was happy with them. My daddy ate them all, but he really enjoyed them. I know they were good because he wouldn’t have eaten them all and the rest of us would’ve had to eat them. I want to order more for myself, but they are on the expensive side so it’s definitely a treat. Besides I’ve gotten them in the past, and I ate them all in one setting by myself. Long story short I can’t be trusted with almond paste.

Excellent taste! German quality. They are fresh and of a good texture. Sweet enough to be good, but not overly sweet like American candies. I totally recommend it!

Celebratory marzipan fruits are delicious and beautiful. They arrived in perfect condition!

They are delicious, but I wish each fruit shape had a very light flavor of the represented fruit (i.e. pear shape could taste a bit like pear). They do look elegant on a serving dish.

Not the best. My father, to whom I gave these as a gift for Father’s Day, really loves Marzipan but said these were not great and were lacking in almond flavor.

My 16 year old is a connoisseur of candy and she loves the bougi and foreign types of candy. Absolutely loves this stuff. Price was a little high but it is Marzipan so that's expected. Taste ans freshness was on point. Will buy again for sure.

I am a marzipan fanatic … a maven if not a connoisseur. I import kilo upon kilo of holiday marzipan from Szamos in Hungary and prowl their shops when I’m there. I grew up in Yorkville in Manhattan, the home not merely of numerous German importers selling the primary german and austrian marzipan bonbon exports but also the neighborhood where this country’s only, stellar, marzipan-centered candy shop …Elk Confectionary, was situated. Elk is now long gone. But Bergen is currently the closest one can come to Elk, and it knocks the socks off Szamos, Niederegger, Mirabell…all of the imports. There is a discernible taste of bitter almond flavor that marks the best marzipan and it's there in Bergen's. Freshness has not been totally consistent, but they swiftly replaced the two stale packages (out of dozens) over the past several years. There simply is no decent alternative, by mail order or in a store. They continue the tradition of the finest marzipan (and for those looking for a marzipan base for baking or confectionary, they also sell bulk uncolored or shaped marzipan by weight).

Great, great gift for a granny who loves sweets!
