How to make Marzipan Sweets - Sharing our Family Tradition

Hello there! :D
I am so excited to finally share with you how to make these adorable and delicious tiny marzipan sweets that we call ''Petits fruits'' which means tiny fruits, although we also make vegetables and potatoes haha !
This recipe is actually almost 60 years old, and my grandmother found it in a newspaper and it became a tradition in the family. She used to make hundreds of them and give them as precious gifts to family and friends, and my Dad, uncles and aunt would help her make them.
It was really magical to have my uncle Paul (the youngest of the family, just like me) come over with his wife, to show us the techniques he remembered from 25 years ago!
Here is the ingredients you will need for the recipe:
1 pound of almond paste/marzipan
⅓ a cup of corn syrup
1 jar of marshmallow fluff
2 teaspoons of vanilla extract (optional)
6 cups of powdered sugar
And some food coloring
As I say in this video, we filmed this in February 2020 just before the start of the pandemic so this was our last family gathering before everything and it was very special to edit this and see myself next to my parents without a mask or social distancing... I can't wait to live this way again and see my uncles and aunts again!
