Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- Marzipan raw mass (*see Notes)
- Red Food Coloring
- Cocoa powder (optional)
Instruction
- Keep all the model tools and ingredients ready.
- Cut some of the marzipans and cut this piece into half too. Take one of the pieces into your hand and color it with some of the food coloring (small amount).
- Work the color into the marzipan until it's fully colored. Work the other plain marzipan into the red marzipan if it turned out too dark in color. You want a pink piggy.
- Cut out the parts: body, head, legs, ears, snout, and tail
- Shape the body and head (watch the video to see how). Shape the legs too, ears, snout, and tail.
- Stick together the head, body, and legs. You can use some water to help you stick together if you like.
- Smooth out the shape with the modeling tools and create details such as the hooves.
- Stick the curled tail, ears and snout onto the shape. Create eye and snout holes.
- You can fill the eyes with some plain marzipan or black colored marzipan. I like to use simply cocoa powder for the eye details. (simplest and least messy but you need a steady hand)
- Store your marzipan pig in a dry and cool place. Gift it to your loved ones on New Year's day.
