How to Use
Let the loaves sit at room temperature for a few minutes so the marzipan softens, then eat them with coffee or tea. They can also be sliced onto a dessert board or chopped into stollen and cookie dough. Store the pack in a cool, dry place between 60 and 68 F (16 to 20 C), away from sunlight, and reseal after opening to keep the marzipan from drying out.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do Schluckwerder Marzipan Loaves contain allergens?
Yes. Marzipan is made from almonds and the coating is dark chocolate, so the product contains tree nuts and soy lecithin. The pack also notes it may contain walnuts, hazelnuts, pistachios, coconut, milk, wheat, and egg from the facility. Anyone with a nut or other food allergy should read the printed ingredient panel before eating.
How should I store chocolate marzipan?
Keep the pack in a cool, dry place between 60 and 68 F (16 to 20 C), away from sunlight and strong odors, and avoid the refrigerator, which can cause a harmless white bloom on the chocolate. After opening, reseal the pack or move the loaves to an airtight container so the marzipan stays soft and moist.
What does a marzipan loaf taste like?
The center is smooth almond marzipan, sweet with a light nutty flavor and a soft, slightly grainy texture, while the thin dark chocolate shell adds a bitter note that keeps it from being too sweet. Each loaf is a two-bite piece. It tastes similar to the marzipan filling in German stollen and Lübeck marzipan sweets.
Are Schluckwerder Marzipan Loaves imported from Germany?
Yes. This is the authentic German Schluckwerder marzipan in the original 75 g pack, produced in Adendorf, Germany, not a US-market version. Real Prime Deals imports it and ships every order from our New Jersey warehouse, so US and Canadian customers receive the same marzipan sold in German supermarkets.
The price is high for the size but it is fresh and delicious. The chocolate is a real dark chocolate and not too sweet and the marzipan is fluffy with a melt in your mouth texture and a nice almond flavor
Any German misses their marzipan. The expiration date was a bit close but the moisture and freshness did not disappoint! A reliable brand Quick delivery. One complaint: Mine only lasted 20 minutes :)
Item has a great taste, if you are aware and familiar with it. Very popular European style confection. Try to avoid eating too much of it. A little goes a long way. A small amount has a good combination of filling and chocolate for a perfect end result. Savor it. A like this, you might too.
When lots of people think about imported chocolate, they think about Switzerland, or other countries, but Germany makes excellent chocolate products and cookies and this is one of my favorite chocolate covered marzipan.
Remindes me of being back in Germany.
I love almond paste and marzipan, and this chocolate is super good!
It was good but a bit over priced for its size. Flavor was amazing and reminded me of how much i enjoyed it as a kid.
I have been looking for these ever since my relatives stop sending these over when I was a kid, now as an adult I get to enjoy them again
As described. Authentic European taste.
This is a wonderful quality marzipan. I grew up in Germany and this really brought back a lot of wonderful memories for me. I absolutely loved this and it came quickly and was well packaged.
I love dark chocolate; I love marzipan (almond paste). This product is the prefect combination of both.
Unfortunately, item was melted when received but I'm sure it is still edible. Overpriced and small. Around 5" × 1½" x ½". They are less than $4 at our World Market so next time I'll sacrifice the drive. Nonetheless, it is my dad's favorite. The dark chocolate offsets the sweetness of the marzipan so it tastes well together.
Love the taste but very small for that money. Was disappointed when it came . It was so small
