Niederegger Lubeck Dark Chocolate Covered Marzipan
This is pretty much the best marzipan that you can find in American shops. It's not very convenient to eat--it's a big bar that you need to slice on a plate--but worth every bite!
It can still be hard to find Niederegger in the States. If you see it, do yourself a favor and buy a bar!

You can find this candy everywhere, these days, from CVS to Target.

Pete & Gerry's is committed to the community, the animals, and the environment. You can see pictures of their obviously not massive-agro farm on their website, as well as find a great article about sustainable... (show more)
