Marzipan
Our Classic little marzipan logs took centre stage in a TV advertising campaign; they were used to create the landmark of the Hanseatic town of Lübeck, the Holsten Tor (Holsten Gate).
Niederegger stands for tradition, outstanding hand craftsmanship and the height of indulgence.
Marzipan made with love since 1806.

Niederegger products owe their unique quality not only to the quality of the raw ingredients and the traditional roasting method, but also to the right proportion of almonds to sugar. Everything else is a closely guarded family secret that has been passed down from one generation to the next for over 200 years.
At Niederegger, particular importance is attached to traditional craftsmanship. The almonds are blanched in a hot water bath – a quick and thorough way of removing their brown skins. They are then sorted, first by machine and then by hand, to ensure that only the very best almonds are processed. The selected almonds are rinsed again in large drums before being mixed with sugar. Rollers are used to grind the almonds and sugar, taking care to retain the texture of the almonds so that it is still perceptible to the tongue.
Afterwards, the raw mixture is roasted under the watchful eye of an experienced master roaster. This involves placing the mixture in a rotating boiler and heating it evenly over an open flame. The fine roasting aromas blend with the almonds and sugar to create a deliciously aromatic raw mixture. After cooling the mixture with cold air and leaving it to rest for a while, we add the secret Niederegger ingredient. Only then is the marzipan ready for turning into one of over 300 different products.
