Amandelspijs

Amandelspijs is a sticky almond paste made from equal parts ground almonds and sugar. Cooking oil, eggs, heavy cream or corn syrup may be added as a binder to hold the paste together. Flavorings such as lemon or orange peel may be added, and it may be tinted with food coloring.
This version of almond paste is significantly less sweet than marzipan.
