Gonegirl wasn’t it you once who ate an Easter egg intended for your son? ?

Maggiemaybe Sun 07-Apr-19 14:44:30

EllanVannin, I do eat a lot of marzipan with dark choc. But I'd love to try it in white.

I once lived near Lubeck, so have spent quite some time in the Niederegger cafe. I once nearly, but not quite, cured myself of my marzipan addiction by having their afternoon tea of marzipan pancakes, followed by marzipan cake and marzipan hot chocolate. It was a bit much even for me!

Gonegirl Sun 07-Apr-19 14:46:43

lemongrove, might have been.

Maggiemaybe Sun 07-Apr-19 14:47:11

Gonegirl, whatever you do, don't dry your hair near the Easter egg stash. A little wobble, point the dryer the wrong way, and whoops, oh dear. You'll have to eat it because it's melted and buy a replacement later. Not your fault at all. Oh no.

Gonegirl Sun 07-Apr-19 14:49:33

No! I can't read this thread anymore. Temptation's getting too great. Specially when someone starts telling me how to do it so's it's not my fault!!! hmm
